You got me forced to crack
My lids in two
I�m still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that
Leads the blind
I�m just another gear in the assembly
Line - oh no

The noose gets tighter around
My throat
But I ain�t at the end of my rope �cause
I won�t be the one left behind
Can�t be king of the world
If you�re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can�t be king of the world
If you�re slave to the grind

Get it?

A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain�t even close
There�s no need to waste
Your prayers on me
You better mark my words
�cause i�m history
Yes indeed

You might beg for mercy to get by
But i�d rather tear this thorn
From my side

I won�t be the one left behind
You can�t be king of the world
If you�re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can�t be king of the world
If you�re slave to the grind

They swallowed thier daggers by
Turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart
Brick by brick
I�m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

They swallowed thier daggers by
Turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart
Brick by brick
I�m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

I won�t be the one left behind

You can�t be king of the world
If you�re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
You can�t be king of the world
If you�re slave to the grind

I said slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
