Steelheart

(álbum: Tangled In Reins - 1992)

Stone drunk and crazy I was running from his gun
Caught me in the corner with that look of death, said you ain't my fucking son
I said man, are you crazy? Let go of my hand
Just because you put me in this world, doesn't make you understand
You're a 16 year old punk, you think you know it all
You still got dirt underneath your nose, for your Mama you still call
Hey Boy, can you hear me? I want you to get out
Go out and fight the world like I did and learn what life's about
No, no, no, no, I won't come easy
Look at yourself Boy, ain't nothing but a dirty bum
Do nothing all day just play that guitar, and hang around with all the scum
Your hair's down past your shoulders, I can't even see your eyes
You're looking at me but I can't even tell
Whether or not you're selling me lies
You think it's been so easy, never took time out to see
I've been standing for years looking for love
But your bottle's your friend, not me
Are you deaf? Can you hear me? I'm knocking on your door
When the sun goes down I'll be on the tracks, won't see my face no more
No, no, no, no, I won't come easy
Cause Daddy, I'm just like you, I've got a steelheart
Yeah, you threw me to the lions to fight 'em all alone
Like you do, I have to suffer, to find, find, find, find my way home
Yeah I know I will survive, somehow I'll find a way
Live or die I'll make a stand no no no no matter what they say
Bring on the world now, I'm down and ready to fight
I've grown stronger than dynamite
You can throw me down and kick me, but you're never gonna see me run
I'll pick myself right back up and load my guns

[Chorus:]
I'm a one man army, a two man fight
I got a steelheart and I'll die for my right
I'm a one man army, a two man fight
I got a steelheart and I'll die
I've been sleeping in the doghouse, I shower in the rain
I fought through all the fire, no no no I feel no pain
So take me as I'm now, I'm down and easy to fight
I've grown stronger than a pit bull's bite
You can throw me down and kick me, but you're never gonna see me run
I'll pick myself right back up and load my guns

[Chorus 2x]

Yeah, I got a steel, I won't come easy, no
I won't come easy, I won't come easy
Steel, steel, steel, steel, steelheart

[Solo]

I'm a one man army, a two man fight
And I'll die, die for my right
A one man army, a two man fight
And I'll die with a stealheart
