Needful Things

[Verse 1]

This one goes out to all the soul survivors

Soldiers of war reborn

Lord knows they can't retire

Cut 'em no slack, broken backs

Built the lost empire

The pain was forged in fire

The truce has long expired

(Are you in or in the way?)

[Pre-Chorus]

Heaven rests in a .357, uh

Push 'em far enough, Lord knows they'll send 'em, uh

To a plane of existence (What?)

Reserved for the vicious (What?)

I'm wise to the wicked

When thе wish list becomes a hitlist

The cursе is lifted (Yeah)

[Chorus]

Are you in or in the way?

Are you in or in the way?

Are you in or in the way?

We want tomorrow, so fuck your yesterday

[Verse 2]

Cut in line, cut 'em in

Slice the pie razor thin

It's never free but it's half the price

They're gettin' by but they don't got the life

You got the grip but they don't love you (Nah)

You tangle the truth so they don't trust you (Nah)

The beast in the mirror, it becomes you

Look 'em square in the eye and say "Fuck you" (Yeah)

[Chorus]

Are you in or in the way?

Are you in or in the way?

Are you in or in the way?

We want tomorrow, so fuck your yesterday (Are you in?)

Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)

Are you in or in the way? (Are you in?)

Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)

We want tomorrow, so fuck your yesterday

[Post-Chorus]

Heaven rests in a .357

Push 'em far enough, Lord knows they'll send 'em

Heaven rests in a .357

Push 'em far enough, Lord knows we'll send 'em

Bang

[Refrain]

When the wish list

Becomes a hitlist

The curse is lifted

The curse is lifted

[Bridge]

Picket signs on the other side of picket fences

Weaponize, defend the defenseless

The kids are coming for you

The kids are coming for you

The kids are coming for you

Are you in or in the way?

You

[Chorus]

(Are you in?)

Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)

Are you in or in the way? (Are you in?)

Are you in or in the way? (Or in the way?)

We want tomorrow, so fuck your yesterday

[Outro]

He did it again

Caused trouble, hurt someone's feelings

Yet he didn't want to

Yes, troublesome people are often people in trouble
