Eric Rosen - Last Man lyrics
[Clown MC] As the day grows cold in an instant And the clouds menace in grim persistence [Markos] I am alone my own resistance Uninvited unfound Heart not making a sound [Markos & Clown MC] 1 time fool me and it's shame on you 2 times fools me and it's shame on me 3 times -- there's never three times [Markos] Cause I'm never foolish And you're never fooling me Damned if I live this life Waiting on the sidelines Been plotting watching for my moment This was my time Stuck in my crosshair He was almost lost there My finger on the trigger Would have blown my brother sky high I was in line The city should've been mine But my brother stepped in front And led the people blind Why? Why follow his foolishness Inflated hope -- our dead mother's tutelage I'll show who the ruler is The first born It's ludicrous On my head the crown should be first worn In truthfulness And with God and my mother as my witness Imma get what's mine by traveling the distance [Markos & Clown MC] 1 time fool me and it's shame on you 2 times fools me and it's shame on me 3 times -- there's never three times [Markos] Cause I'm never foolish And you're never fooling me I'll be the last man Standing when the world collapses I have walked a harder road Got them thinking my heart is gold I'll never show What I'll do to take the last stand And now my brother will marry, marry Half brother motherf**er Man we relate barely Barely even noticed in his shadow When you the oldest man it shouldn't be a battle And then this girl that he proposes he will wed? A bygone icon of a city that is dead She's an illusion he's choosing To stake his movement on a diluted solution A f**ing unproven union I'm disillusioned perhaps But my mother already proved it Peaceful revolution is always bound to be Polluted Guess I'm the last man standing who knows this But watch me stay focused forever unnoticed [Markos & Clown MC] 1 time fool me and it's shame on you 2 times fools me and it's shame on me 3 times -- there's never three times [Markos] Cause I'm never foolish And you're never fooling me [Markos & Men] I'll be the last man Standing when the world collapses [Markos] I have walked a harder road Got them thinking my heart is gold I'll never show What I'll do to take the last stand Let's say I bring a monstrous birth to The world's light They all can trust me at first sight While I hide in their confidence The always obedient dog By your side's got the worst bite And if there's no ladder to climb I'll pull the plug on Venice Watch it sink till I rise [Markos & Men] 1 time fool me and it's shame on you 2 times fools me and it's shame on me 3 times -- there's never three times Cause I'm never foolish And you're never fooling me I'll be the last man Standing when the world collapses I have walked a harder road Got them thinking my heart is gold I'll never show What I'll do to take the last stand [Markos] I'll be the I'll be the last man
