[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda] It goes a one, two, three I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun I don't need to sweat it when the competition come Original style, like an 808 drum So I don't run the track, no I make the track run My mama taught me words My daddy built rockets I put 'em both together, now tell me what I got it's- A pretty smart weapon I can shoot it, I can drop it But learn to respect it 'cause you clearly can't stop it Like that... [Verse 2: Mike Shinoda] It ain't over 'cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right And anything you do they wanna get a little bite It really doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right Cause; once they get their teeth in, nothing really fights Except for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes But steady little soldier, I ain't standing next to you I can lay it on the ground before you're even in my view Like that... [Bridge: Chester Bennington] Give me; the strength of the rising sun Give me; the truth of the words unsung When the last bells ring, the poor men sing; "bring me to kingdom come." [Verse 3: Mike Shinoda] This is something for you people on the block to, blackout and rock to Give me what you need like; Poppa, who shot ya? Separate the weak from the obso- Lete, you're meek; I creep hard on imposters And switch styles on a dime, quick witted, y'all quick trippin' I don't have time for your crying I grind tough, s**a, make your mind up Are you in the firing squad, or are you in the lineup? Bang, bang, lil' monkey man playing with the big guns only get you slain I ain't playin', I'm just saying; you ain't got a sliver of a chance I get iller, I deliver, while you quiver in your pants So, shake, shakedown, money, here's the breakdown You can play the bank, I'm a play the bank take down No mistakes now, coming to get you I'm just a Banksy, you're a brainwash Get the picture? It's like that [Outro: Brad Delson] We swim against the rising waves That crash against the shore The body bends until it breaks The early morning sings no more So rest your head it's time to sleep And dream of what's in store The body bends until it breaks And sings again no more Cause time has torn the flesh away The early morning sings no more
