Beast

[Verse 1]
If I became a beast, no more a man
The only way to freedom in this land, I
Roam the streets with nothin' in my hands
Nothin' left to steal, all I'd have is me, oh
Would not need to try and hold my dignity
Would not have these lies hangin' over me
Would not need to fight for what belongs to me
I would have it all in my own mind, all mine

[Chorus]
What about the man without his tools?
Surely he's a beast, if just as useless
With no wheel and no spear and no fire
(Woah, woah, woah, woah)
Yeah

[Verse 2]
If I became a beast, no more a man
No wait, no wait, if I became a ghost, no more a soldier, soldier
Would I still wait for our war to be over?
If there's nothin' left to give that could kill me
Is that true peace? Tell me
If I must wield a sword, no more a pen
Would I still be the same man in the mornin'?
Will power overwhelm me? Or its absence make me bend?
It all depends on my mind's eye in the sunrise

[Chorus]
What about the man without his tools?
Surely he's a beast, if just as useless
With no wheel and no spear and no fire
(Woah, woah, woah, woah)
Yeah

[Bridge]
Fire
Oh, fire
Yeah, fire
Woah, woah, fire
Yeah, yeah, fire

[Chorus]
What about the man without his tools? (Fire)
Surely he's a beast, if just as useless (Fire)
With no wheel and no spear and no fire
(Woah, woah, woah, woah, fire)
What about the man without his tools? (Fire)
Surely he's a beast, if just as useless (Fire)
With no wheel and no spear and no fire (Fire)
Woah, yeah
(Woah, woah, woah, woah, fire)
