[ Featuring Lee Pardini ]
If you look out at the skyline
From far enough away
The city's just a row of broken teeth
Its rumbling and it's growling
It festers and decays
But I still hear it calling out for me
I thought my debts were settled
That some rules had been enforced
As a bead of sweat starts rolling down my cheek
I was good at treating symptoms
But I never found the source
So these voices might not ever let me be
Chorus:
But I know I'm never gonna break
If I can find you at the end of every day
They'll say i don't have what it takes
I just won't let go of what it takes away
What it takes away
I coulda been a contender
But I burned a bit too bright
Until I couldn't take another swing
I kept up w the training
But I've given up the fight
And now I'm being forced back in the ring
