Raise The Gates
Egypt Central
You know think you know what the hell I've seen?
You think you know where the hell I've been?
I'm from the places people never really talk about
Because they don't even know where to begin
The mom and dad that I never had
Were just the first of the M.I.A
I had the teachers and the preachers
And the coaches and counselors
But everybody faded away
Fake it sympathy, you don't care
Yeah, there's hell on earth, I live there
You can take me to the devils house
You can show me where the devil waits
So, let me in I'm not afraid
Raise the gates
Push me in the fire
Let the flames wash everything
I'm not tired of defending my beliefs
Let it burn me down to ashes as it crashes over me
If this is hell I'm not afraid, raise the gates and push me in the fire
When you said that you loved me too
You didn't get what it really meant
You can't lie and cheat, and steal and leave
And think you're ever going to see me again
Take it out on me, your M.O
Left in hell on earth, all alone
You can take me to the killing fields
And you can show me where the devil waits
So, let me in, I'm not afraid
Raise the gates
I’ve got this feeling like I'm coming undone
I don't know where it's from, but I know that I like it
