Missing Link - Unchained

Mama’s first born son
1-9-9-1
Crooked gap tooth smile
And a loaded gun
After the twist of fate
Taught me to hate
Contemplate ways
Toward greater survival rate
Survive not thrive
Has been the goal my whole damn life
New dreams shattered
Mentally scattered
Searching for a reason to carry on
Can I carry on like this?
Sisyphus
Nailed to a crucifix
I admit-
I’m lost
It’s my time on the cross
But at what cost?

My faith lost to the sands of time
Crime of life became my life of crime
This isn’t what you wanted for me
But this might be the only way for me to be free
Sorry Mama
You know it’s true
What can I do?
It’s my destiny to die too
Don’t shed a tear
Cause I ain’t happy here
Rather die on my feet now than live life slave to the fear

I can’t pretend it’s all bad
But the bad only gets worse
Take from me all I ever had
Until my turn in the hearse
Mama’s first born son
1-9-9-1
Mama’s first born son…
Crooked gap tooth smile and a loaded…

Another brick in the road
Guide us back to the devil’s throne
I won’t atone
For the crimes of those
Abused as a child
When they’re fully grown

Now your monster is fully grown
