Bound by Chains

Empty words spoke from my family to me

Bound by chains, it burns the fire in me

I won't let these vices take hold

I won't let them consume me

Vices become me

You're no better than me

You're rich and filthy

You fill your pockets with gold

No satisfaction from the words that I speak

So much I've dealt with, now the reaper comes my way

Keep my head up but the rain gets me anyways

My life's a maze, and I'm stumbling towards an end

Shadows in the back of my mind won't let me sleep

This life of misery I’ve led eats away at me (Eats away at me)

These vices brought by birth live burden and dirt, I fought for where I am

Overcome with lessons learned, shadows won't let me sleep, I'll put a gun to my head

No satisfaction from the words that I speak

So much I've dealt with, now the reaper comes my way

Keep my head up but the rain gets me anyways

My life is a maze

Vices become me
