[Em]
[Am] [Em]
[C] [Am] Once I wanted to [Em] be the greatest
Oh [Am] man, what a [Em] focused army
And [F] then [Dm] came the rush of the [G] blood
Stars at night turned you to dirt
Melt [C] me down, [Am] split like all [Em] mine
You [C] don't trade [Am] grace, just in [Em] your honor
Lower [C] me down, [Am] cup read the sun
[Em] Make me watch, space in town for [F] the lake
And [Dm] the dreads of my faith, [G] fence me fast
Lower [F] me down, hand [Dm] me in
Secure [G] the ground for the lay [C] of the rage
[Am] [Em]
[C] Once I [Am] wanted to [Em] be the greatest
[C] Two [Am] fists of sound, [Em] it rhymes
[C] With [Am] rhymes that could explain [Em] any feeling
Lower [F] me down, [Dm] hand me in
[G] Secure the ground [F] for the lay of the rage
[Dm] And the dreads of my faith, [G] fence me fast
For the lay [C] of the rage
[Am] [Em]
[C] [Am] [Em]
[C] Once [Am] I wanted to be [Em] the greatest
[C] Oh man, [Am] what a [Em] focused army
And [F] then came [Dm] the rush of the blood
[G] Stars at night turned you to [F] dirt
[Dm] [G]
