The Sellout

Sell your soul for an ounce of gold You never know what you may find Beneath your skin You know where you've been Now you feel your legs are trembling It's the shaking rush of adrenaline Don't keep them all waiting The pen is in your hand But you're not the one writing Dirty money covers up the hole That's left inside your heart Inside your heart Make an honest living Tryna stop yourself from dying Make a start, make a start Watch yourself you're slipping You're losing sight of life No one ever really seems to mind Cause you're running up your walls Coming up with time Time that could be better spent Tryna run and hide You're a puppet on a string I don't think you're listening Bend you backbone till it breaks Get down and kiss the ring A thousand pounds left for a kiss And fifty pence left for your soul Left for your soul And do whatever you can do Dig a grave to fill a hole To fill that hole Your brain is something special Poison fills your head It's seeping out Through words you've said Cause you're running up your walls Coming up with time Time that could be better spent Tryna run and hide You're a puppet on a string I don't think you're listening Bend you backbone till it breaks Get down and kiss the ring Get down and kiss the ring Sell your soul For an ounce of gold You never know What you may find Beneath your skin You know where you've been Now you feel your legs Are trembling It's the shaking rush Shaking rush Rush of adrenaline Oh Oh Cause you're running up your walls Coming up with time Time that could be better spent Tryna run and hide You're a puppet on a string I don't think you're listening Bend you backbone till it breaks Get down and kiss the ring Cause you're running up your walls And you're coming up with time That time that could be better spent You're tryna run and hide You're a puppet on a string Nobody's listening Bend your backbone till it breaks Get down and kiss the ring Get down and kiss the ring
