[00:05.32]He was a southpaw but had a killer right swing
[00:11.61]An outlaw inside of the ring
[00:15.26]Every now and then he'd be put against the ropes but then he'd bounce back
[00:17.96]Catch a second wind and throw blows 'til noses crack
[00:22.45]He smashed mouths, he saw red and blacked out
[00:25.11]Received a couple pats on the back for the smack downs
[00:27.87]Negative reinforcement, never did he endorse it
[00:31.52]Had the business sense to wait for press conferences to talk shit
[00:34.29]He wasn't a dullard, though he'd never say much
[00:36.94]Properly mothered but his father taught him how to take a punch
[00:39.62]It was bare knuckle touch of tough love
[00:42.37]When he got drunk enough he took his kid down to the gym and fit him up with gloves
[00:45.99]Tied together with a shoelace, took em apart put em on
[00:49.50]Looked in the mirror, practiced his screw face
[00:51.31]Said, "This is for you, Pops, for all the things we never got to do"
[00:55.82]The hottest part of a flame is blue
[01:02.12]The hottest part of a flame is blue Now we got children thinking that they're born to fistfight
[01:22.50]Cause they've been promised an apocalypse, by prophets without insight
[01:27.19]He coulda fooled us, in fact we're dumbstruck
[01:29.86]The school bus is looking like a dump truck
[01:32.56]Stuffed in class like a landfill until it overflows
[01:35.24]Babysitters can't get the students off their mobile phones
[01:37.91]A junkyard dog is eating trash in the cafeteria
[01:41.57]Feeling mad at America
[01:43.31]The school counselor likes to recycle psychobabble
[01:46.92]The assistant to the teacher is just an old TV
[01:49.64]Now they've all got the urge to battle
[01:51.44]Cause they see a sign that says, "Like to travel? R.O.T.C."
[01:55.91]I don't think he can handle, he goes from flannel to camo
[01:57.75]Cold putting all the ammo in his gun
[02:00.48]He watched channel one, switched to channel two
[02:03.13]Unplug completely, the hottest part of a flame is blue
[02:30.16]We're acting like an enemy is the sea, sky, and land now
[02:32.85]Came across soldiers who did nothing but yell, "stand down"
[02:36.49]In their spare time inside a shower stall
[02:39.12]If not that, they're at the corner store playing PowerBall
[02:41.96]And when the towers fall, they get protective of this land
[02:45.57]And won't stand for anything to get resurrected
[02:48.25]They're waiting for the second coming, the Great Pumpkin
[02:50.96]Deep down, they know they really wanna do is break something
[02:53.60]That's what they're trained to do
[02:55.47]And then they say to you
[02:56.33]"Just cause you see the devil in my eyes don't make it true"
[02:59.90]And I say, "true enough"
[03:01.77]All that fire in your eyes shows pain
[03:03.55]But the flame ain't blue enough
