Only As Strong

You had every opportunity to leave it alone
I couldn't give you my best
You wouldn't show me your worst

All pretense for civility was left at the door
Concerned with capital I's
And no lower case votes

Deface our state
Deep fake our fate

We had every opportunity to welcome them home
We should be disarmed
Our hands are at our throats

A family that's torn apart cant be remade
We're in a custody battle
Between our heads of state

Tally our sins
No one wins

I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one
I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one
At all

When everything ends
Who pulls the strings
Are cockroaches bipartisan

When the world ends
None will remain
Put your hands up or be slain

Pour yourself the stiffest drink
Convinced that is an answer

When everything ends
Who really wins
I concede

I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one
I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one
At all

Both just want to take out our knees
Then hand us a crutch so we can feel free
Both always take out our knees
Then say, "It's a good thing you've got me"

Don't want to be immobilized
I want to run

All we do is crucify
Our loved ones

Create more hate
Rob, steal, violate
Cheat, lie, indoctrinate
All hail
Right to our graves

I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one

I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one
I am only as strong
As my biggest flaw
Given up to the sun
I will fear no one
At all
