Battle Cry

[Verse 1]
Feel like a devil's watching over my life
Pulling on my strings like a mandolin
Trying to fight
Trying to do what I believe is right
Giving effort to defend but I never win
Want to be a better me 'fore my destiny settles in
Before I'm a skeleton laid to rest
I know I gave it my best
With barely any energy left
When I begin to progress
Life told me "guess again"
I done left, seen places you ain't never been
Could'a just been the end of it
Felt the rush of adrenaline
Running up in my system like it was medicine
Smell the evil in the wind
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
Back in the fire
Back in the clinch
Banging on the door
Looking for a war
Ride 'till I die
Rest and revenge

[Chorus]
I wear my scars, I bear my cross
I fought my fights
I won, I lost
I hear you calling from the dark
You're calling
You're calling
Battle cry
Battle cry
Battle cry
This is my
Battle cry
Battle cry
Battle cry
My battle cry

[Verse 2]
Out of the dark
I'm the one God forgot
Back and I won't be stopped
Broke through the lock
Nothing can hold me off
Heaven is holding spots
Look what you've brought
Am I the same as you thought?
Now that you get what you got?
Rip 'em apart
Deliver the venom of vengeance that lives in the heart

Soon as you start
Pulling attacks
Pulling me back like it's just another hook and a rap
Put to a track sold and bought
Pride was the only cost
Now I'm ripping your ligaments and bones apart
Thinking I could be controlled, but nah
Giving everything, my soul and all
Bring it from the core I go hard
So far only known to God
What I'm gonna do when I'm standing in front of you when I go off

[Chorus] (x2)
I wear my scars, I bear my cross
I fought my fights
I won, I lost
I hear you calling from the dark
You're calling
You're calling
Battle cry
Battle cry
Battle cry
This is my
Battle cry
Battle cry
Battle cry
My battle cry
