When I was young, just under 21
I tore my town apart by emptying my loaded gun
Into the atmosphere, catching bodies along the way
And now the Lord can't help me, and there ain't no god to save
A wretch like me
A wretch like me
A wretch like me
My family is upset, but I'm still their baby boy
Who's never gone nowhere alone, but now I ain't got no choice
I'm going down, I'm going down
I'm going down, down, down, I'm going down
Oh, but I don't wanna go to hell
No, I don't wanna go to hell
But if the devil is a bully
Then I guess I might as well still be alive
And at the football games, everyone will know my name
Won't matter if they're local, or they're in from outta state
The innocent boy turned dangerous who went to the mall that day
He grew up in the foothills
He went to that mall to slay
And like a bad dream, that feels so real
That it can't be, but it is still
And like a nightmare taken out of sleep
It hits you in the morning like a newspaper at your feet
My name will reign
My name will reign
My name will reign
Cryin' on my mama's shoulders holdin' my daddy's hand
Look into my sister's eyes, I know it's hard to understand
That what I did, won't be forgiven
And what I did, is neverending
But look up at the school and tell me
What do you see?
There's something wrong with all of them
There's nothing wrong with me
My name will reign
My name will reign
My name will reign
My name will reign
My name will reign, reign
My name will reign
My name will reign, reign
My name will reign
My name will reign, reign
My name will reign
My name will reign, reign
My name will reign
When I was young, just under 21
I tore my town apart by emptying my loaded gun
Into the atmosphere, catching bodies along the way
And now the Lord can't help me, and there ain't no god to save
A wretch like me
