This song was written shortly after Issues' vocalists Tyler Carter and Michael Bohn left their second band, Woe Is Me. The split was fairly nasty, though kept on the down-low, and a lot of grudges were held. This song is viewed as a revenge song from Michael and Tyler to their former bandmates.

[Intro: Michael Bohn]
Wrath to the industry
[Verse 1: Michael Bohn]
Get over yourself, they can see right through you
We are the future like no one ever knew you
Got the swag of a coward and the heart of a nemesis
If you don't like these lyrics then go listen to Genesis
Sega, we ain't playin' games
Since you took demise, we'll take the fame
[Chorus: Tyler Carter]
And I can't wait to say whatever
And I can't wait to shed some light
On every little thing you've broken and get on with my life
And I can't wait to be whoever
And I can't wait to speak my mind
On every little thing you've broken and get on with my life
[Verse 2: Michael Bohn; Scout]
I heard from your friends that you've been stricken with fear
Desperate for press in your pathetic career
Can't get out of debt since your sales took a dive
You can find out the hard way, cowards never thrive
Take, take that
If you'd cut records like cocaine
You could still have a fucking name
Yeah, I guess I took it too far and I know the truth hurts
But if you're scared, bitch, go to church
[Chorus: Tyler Carter]
And I can't wait to say whatever
And I can't wait to shed some light
On every little thing you've broken and get on with my life
And I can't wait to be whoever
And I can't wait to speak my mind
On every little thing you've broken and get on with my life
[Bridge: Tyler Carter]
If they let you into heaven, then I'd rather go to hell
You think you're buying your way to the top with all that bullshit that you sell
God's not naive like the fans you deceive
Even the devil was an angel, what the fuck did he achieve?
Wrath to the industry and everything it used to be
[Chorus: Tyler Carter]
And I can't wait to say whatever
And I can't wait to shed some light
On every little thing you've broken and get on with my life
And I can't wait to be whoever
And I can't wait to speak my mind
On every little thing you've broken and get on with my life
