Cutthroat

(album: Mercury - Acts 1 & 2 - 2022)

I've been waiting patiently
I built this tower quietly
And when my well of Wellbutrin is
Running dry of serotonin
I can say things I don't mean
Or maybe it's the truth in me
I feel it building, bubbling up
My t-t-time is up

I'm so misunderstood, but I live for this
My money's good, and I came to win
So step on up, and I promise you
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive

I've been making my Gethsemane
Since I was young my ancestry
Was marching martyrdom across the
Radadadadumbla plains of Utah
I can't lie, I've been played
By powerful people who get their way
But I in time will climb my mountain
I in time will rise

I'm so misunderstood, but I live for this
My money's good, and I came to win
So step on up, and I promise you
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat)
Only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive

Try me
Try me
(Ra-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
Cutthroat
Only one of us, only one of us, not you (Cutthroat)
Only one of us, only one of us
Only one of us
Get on my knee, get on my knee
Get on my knee, get on my knee
Get on my knee, get on my knee
Get on my knee, get on my knee
Cutthroat (Get on my knee)
Cutthroat (Get on my knee)
Cutthroat (Get-get-get, get-get-get)
Cutthroat
