Planet Mondaze - Gun$linger Lyrics

Living behind the blade a shade crasser
The stage that I play on is arranged for rage, folly and martyrdom
Just a page in the same novel displayed
For the same groveling babes at the gates calling for God to come
Gunslinger, rum drinker, some figure grave diggers drank liquor just to numb the pain
Abstain from refraining the statement you just mistakenly uttered
That kind of talk will leave you face down in a gutter
Because the toughest of the tough
Recognize the pain as a bluff for the lust for blood tucked deep within us
Rumbling in our guts
You better keep that ugly stuff locked shut beneath your cloak
If you ever truly intend to use that gun
You can't pretend that the power you wield is harmless
When you dispatch entire armies to force an armistice
We're talking consequence
We're talking karma, but shit
You think you equipped to deal with it the pull the trigger, bitch

Saddle up, kids
It's a lifetime ride for a piece of the pie in the sky that keeps you alive
The detractors pop off like gunshots
While these actors fall off the second you press stop
Even though this world will change
We the people stay the same
Eat, sleep, survive, repeat
Every single day, every f*cking week
It's the same message that they try to preach
Because those who can't do teach
Even if they shouldn't speak

Well, if you're speaking then you're loading up bullets
So put em' in your pistol and don't be afraid to pull it
Leadership is lonely, the flares are always smoking
No time for the coping, so save the moaning and the groaning
Start growing into another Gunsliger
Solving all your problems using only one finger

Gunslinger, you better back up all that talk
Gunslinger, you better pay the price for that walk

I'm just a part of an endlessly spinning sphere
Man, I got nothing to lose
I'm just a cannon at the edge of dawn firing off and
You know this cannon is loose
You wanna mar yourself for reverence then be my guest
I'm getting tired of that worn out play
You wanna give yourself a cause for some justice then, Lord, I
I think that you should pony up and enter the fray
