If you try to make it alone

Expect some broken bones

Do not focus your hate

On anything that doesn't need to break

Only a few will survive:

The crazy, frightened, paranoid

Wonder, wonder, what you're for?

Answer: transfer genetic code

If anyone shows you love

Sit down with them

Over a cup of green or black tea-

Ask them 'bout their family

'cause in the end I doubt

If anything will matter as much as this

If you want to take the king

You might have to trade your queen

Failure, shame, catastrophe

Are better for you than lucky breaks

If you try to make it alone

Expect some broken bones

If anyone shows you respect

Sit down with them

Over a couple cups of coffee-

Ask 'em what they want to be

'cause in the end I doubt

If anything will matter as much as this
