Lyrics

Stem

[Intro]

Stem!

[Verse]

Anything that I want you to know, yeah

Anything that I want you to see

See the reason to which way to be, yeah

Anything that I want you to be

[Chorus]

Damn good thing it isn't a crime

I've got a

A dirty, dirty gun up against my head

Cleanse and purge the ill from the inside

A burning conscience severs the stem

[Verse]

Anything that I want you to know, yeah

Anything that I want you to see

See the reason to which way to be, yeah

Anything that I want you to be

Stem!

[Chorus]

Yeah

Damn good thing it isn't a crime

I've got a

A dirty, dirty gun up against my head

Cleanse and purge the ill from the inside

A burning conscience severs the stem
