lyrics

You’ve got it all backwards, 
And upside down
Don’t see a problem when a youth is lying face down
In a puddle of blood, a concrete cemetery (cemetery)
I’ve wondered, I’ve pondered what he could have been thinking, 
Before they filled his back with lead
A deadly portrait was painted, black and blue with a splash of red

Livid 

You think that this is your world and we’re just living in it 
So sick of the nonsense spilling from your mouth 
You’re finished 
Last round, knocked down, lights out 
Good riddance 
God knows i'm livid 

Hands up if you wanna catch a bullet, 
Get on the ground, get on the ground and 
Beg for your life (beg for your life)
No peace, no truth
No shame, aim and shoot
No rights, no apologies 
Dead to rights,  born to bleed
Break the oath you swore, 
If I'm the bull, you’re the matador
With blood on your hands and fear in your heart, 
I swear I'll rip you apart
  
We're all gonna go blind if we can't see eye to eye
We're all gonna go blind if we can't see eye to eye

Livid 

You think that this is your world and we’re just living in it 
So sick of the nonsense spilling from your mouth 
You’re finished 
Last round, knocked down, lights out 
Good riddance 
God knows i'm livid 

(No use in seeking justice
It always ends up the same) 
No use in seeking justice
It always ends up the same
(No justice, no justice) 
The odds are stacked against the victim, 
Always taking the blame
No one’s perfect, 
But you’re far from innocent
Live life colorblind, 
Or reap the consequence: 
Hell on earth. 

Livid 

Livid 

With blood on your hands and fear in your heart, 
I swear I'll rip you apart.
