The State of It All Lyrics
Baby built from self defense
I took my pounds and made the pence
I'm spent of it all
Every piece of what I crave
Bitter man is what enslaves all the hope of it all
I'll be the fun machine
I'll be the light the second flame
Oh how I crave to be changed
Mr. jamie you're full of shit
We play the game until we fit
The state of it all
You're every piece of what I crave
Nothing more is what I need
So long to it all
All the wave they crash against my bed
All the stakes stand against me
Oh the state
The state of it all
The state of it all now
Ooo the state
The state of it all
The state of it all now
Such an issue doing lifetime
Made my words into a fight
I am bound to it all
The name of me the shape of me
The bitter hunger, fear and greed
I am made of it all
Oh how a moment can
Take all the pain and make me a man
I'll find the way
Any way I can
Ooo the state
The state of it all
The state of it all now
Ooo the state
The state of it all
The state of it all now
It's too late
It's too late
The state of it all
The state of it all now
Ooooo...
