Give It Up

[Intro] Ah! [Verse 1] With the heart of a lion And the fading faith of a mindless mouse I was burying myself Deeper and darker into the ground Get out of the rut, my son Your body wasn't made for this You're gonna kill yourself, kill yourself Kill yourself in your ignorance [Pre-Chorus] But you forgot about me I thought the truth would set me free God, I've been blinded in the dark I thought you promised me a weight that I could carry My back is breaking I'm falling apart My back is breaking I'm falling apart [Chorus] Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life There is a greater purpose Your words were never worthless Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life Nothing you brought is gone You'll never come undone [Post-Chorus] We have one chance to be alive We have one chance to be alive Ah! [Verse 2] There's a noose around my neck A dead body tied to my ankles There's a stone crushing my back And my wrists are bound in shackles I have the end in sight There's hope for another life And let the sake of sacrifice I'm not afraid to die [Pre-Chorus] Now you could finally see I said the truth would set you free You have been blinded in the dark But now I'm promising a life that's worth surrounding My back is breaking I'm falling apart My back is breaking I'm falling apart [Chorus] Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life There is a greater purpose Your words were never worthless Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life Nothing you brought is gone You'll never come undone [Bridge] Will you ever understand me? Will you ever understand me? How desperate do I have to be? Oh! Will you ever understand me? How desperate do I have to be, be, be? [Chorus] Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life There is a greater purpose Your words were never worthless Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life Nothing you brought is gone You'll never come undone [Outro] Give it up, you're wasting time Give it up, you're wasting your life Nothing you brought is gone You'll never come undone
