Violin

[Verse 1: Yelawolf]

I'm down on my knees again

A call for my repentance

The war has taken over me

I beg for the forgiveness

The bullets ricochet, uh

I hear 'em when I sleep now

The blood is on my hands Lord

From man, woman, and child (A soldier from my country)

I'm a soldier from my country (A slave unto my gun)

But a slave unto my gun (The screams to echo louder)

The screams to echo louder (Kill, kill)

God, what have I become? (Whoooa)

I pledge my allegiance

I left my family, a new born baby

To slay the enemy, the struggle for power

The lust, the vanity

I trusted America, she took my sanity

[Hook: Lee Brice]

Winds of change rollin' in

Take your love back again

I'm your fool, Amen

Just a bow for your violin

You played me

You made me your violin

[Verse 2: Yelawolf]

She looks at her reflection

Eyes black and blue

She told them she would leave him

She said she was through

He took her from a small town

Showed her the big city life

He promised her the world

Then he made her his wife (He runs around town)

But he runs around town (Lies, lies)

He's a cheater and a beater (She's sleepin' with the enemy)

She's sleepin' with the enemy (No one believes her)

But no one believes her (Whoa)

A diamond ring, a glass of whiskey

The bottle of pain pills open and empty

She left a letter “To hell I send thee”

He brought home flowers, ashamed and guilty

Too late

[Hook: Lee Brice]

Winds of change rollin' in

Take your love back again

I'm your fool, Amen

Just a bow for your violin

You played me

You made me your violin

[Verse 3: Yelawolf]

Uh, used like a rag

I've been washed up, I've dragged

Through the mud like a thief

My beliefs and my loves

Take it up, take it down

Took a left, took a right

It's the one to be found

To explain to me why

Why it was me that was brought to the edge of the cliff

'Cause see this is not fair but why should you care?

The choices I've made are mine

But I swear that all cannot be the fault of just me

I've tried to maintain my wants and my needs

To work and not see the changes I've strived for

A better life for my family I would die for

Take away everything from me

And ask why more?

Tell me to make a decision in front of five doors

As I'm praying, I'm saying “Why Lord?”

Send me to a war without a sword

I'll fight and fight more

I'll travel a long road

'Cause I'm just a violin

My life is another cord

You played me

Uh, 'Cause I'm just a violin

My life is another cord

You made me

Your violin

[Outro: Lee Brice]

You played me (Violin)

You made me your violin
