A Body To Be Stepped Over

You know what I’ve been thinking of?
I wanna crush a skull

You told me life meant something
But, I found out it was a scam

I was taught to be kind
Give everyone a chance

I get the shaft every time
When my guard goes down

The only time I made out
Was when I deceived someone

Little babies beware of this
Shun anyone that makes you sad

Because they wanna control your ass
They say be civil, be true

That makes you a loser
Claw your way to the top

Nobody really cares about you
You’re an obstacle

A body to be stepped over
