All the Wicked Things

Couldn't handle the rejection
You just weren't good enough
And instead of working harder
You decided to get rough
So you played the victim
And cried your fake tears
And all the fools around you
Believed what you told their ears
And now you're riding high
'Cause it seems that you have won
I'll just let karma pay you back
For all the wicked things you've done

So you got what you wanted
At least for the time being
One day your world will come crashing down
That I'm guaranteeing
So ride on high and think you're free
While waiting for your turn
Payback will come
With every painful second earned
'Cause what you put out in the world
Is what comes back to you
And in the end you can't escape
All the wicked things you do

Didn't like the competition
It was too much of a threat
Couldn't hold your own
With your lack of confidence
So you chose your path
And made a deal with the devil
Thinking you would somehow make
That playing field level
But it came right back around
And kicked you in the ass
You lost all you worked for
'Cause you stabbed me in the back

Did you get what you wanted?
Did you win your sick game?
Did it make you feel good
To disparage my name?
But you got caught red-handed
Because you got too bold
Getting caught up in your own
Web of lies you wove
Tell me was it worth it?
Can you live inside your head?
Knowing all the wicked things
That you did and said

Couldn't handle your incompetence
Being so exposed
So you stole my ideas
And presented them as your own
You supported the aggressor
But played the good Christian
And when I tried to talk to you
You wouldn't even listen
You sat by and watched it unfold
Though you knew that it was wrong
But you were too weak to take a stand
So you went along

Do you feel ashamed now
Or are you proud of what you've done?
Did you set a good example
For your daughter and your son?
Did you teach them to be ruthless
And stab people in the back
When they appear to have
An abundance of what you lack?
Yet you still say that Jesus is
The name that you profess
For all the wicked things you've done
You surely must confess

You were the one in charge
But you just let it slide on by
You could have put a stop to it
But you were too cowardly to try
So you took your head
Put it in the sand so you couldn't see
All the wicked things
People said and did to me
And now you have nothing left
But some wannabes and your pride
And any respect I had for you
Has surely gone and died

The integrity that you spoke of
It was nowhere to be found
You wouldn't even take a stand
Upon the higher ground
You played all sides at every turn
For your own financial gain
And when it all blew up at last
You needed someone to blame
You played us all like we were just some
Puppets on a string
And all along you knew very well
About all the wicked things
