Roots
You play the role of the victim so easily
You play the role of the victim so easily
Like an angel with wings
Or a devil that sings on high
Why, you lie, and, It's all just head games you play
Trade in your love for your pride
Pulling Punches to pacify
In the heart, When, It's all head games you play
Based (Based) On a new web of lies
You're distracted, controlling, ignoring their cries
And then they lash out at me
You play the role of the victim and shove me down
All while we're ripping these roots from the ground
Divided, were conquered now
Don't you lash out at me
You play the role of the victim so easily
So easily
With all the hope that you take
They get no solace when you fake
Blood, spit, fucking hypocrite
It's all just head games you play
Based (Based) On a new web of lies
You're distracted, controlling, ignoring their cries
And then they lash out at me
You play the role of the victim and shove me down
All while we're ripping these roots from the ground
Divided, we're conquered now
Don't you lash out at me
You play the role of the victim so easily
So easily
We share blood
There's nothing left for us to uproot
Coward, just get up and get up and fight now
(Take another swing at me you)
Coward, just get up and get up and find out
Listen to me, listen to me
Take it from me, don't wanna lose this fight miles from home
Based (Based) On a new web of lies
You're distracted, controlling, ignoring their cries
And Then they lash out at me
You play the role of the victim and shove me down
All while we're ripping these roots from the ground
Divided, we're conquered now
Don't you lash out at me
You play the role of the victim so easily
You play the role of the victim so easily
So easily
You're making a damn fool of me
So easily
You play the role of the victim so easily
Like an angel with wings
Or a devil that sings on high
Why, you lie, and, It's all just head games you play
Trade in your love for your pride
Pulling Punches to pacify
In the heart, When, It's all head games you play
Based (Based) On a new web of lies
You're distracted, controlling, ignoring their cries
And then they lash out at me
You play the role of the victim and shove me down
All while we're ripping these roots from the ground
Divided, were conquered now
Don't you lash out at me
You play the role of the victim so easily
So easily
With all the hope that you take
They get no solace when you fake
Blood, spit, fucking hypocrite
It's all just head games you play
Based (Based) On a new web of lies
You're distracted, controlling, ignoring their cries
And then they lash out at me
You play the role of the victim and shove me down
All while we're ripping these roots from the ground
Divided, we're conquered now
Don't you lash out at me
You play the role of the victim so easily
So easily
We share blood
There's nothing left for us to uproot
Coward, just get up and get up and fight now
(Take another swing at me you)
Coward, just get up and get up and find out
Listen to me, listen to me
Take it from me, don't wanna lose this fight miles from home
Based (Based) On a new web of lies
You're distracted, controlling, ignoring their cries
And Then they lash out at me
You play the role of the victim and shove me down
All while we're ripping these roots from the ground
Divided, we're conquered now
Don't you lash out at me
You play the role of the victim so easily
You play the role of the victim so easily
So easily
You're making a damn fool of me
So easily
