Wiseman closed his mouthMadman closed his fistYounk man shows his ageJudge man named it sinBad man don't exist noNo evil man existGood man don't exist noNo righteous man existSad man cannot cry in place where man can seeThis old man thought it weakBut strong man don't existNo undying man existsWeak man don't exist noJust flesh and blood existsBut your mother would be proud of youI bet your mother would be proud of youThe beast will crawl this earthThen fall in the dirt to feed the crowsThey'll rip apart his fleshTil all that's left is glorious boneSo you'll bury your ownToo vainYou saw it unfoldWhat you knowAnd you claimed all you could holdUntil death did you apart from the mess you madeI bet your mother would be proud of youI bet your mother would be proud of youPrimate sharpens toolTo survive and thrive in the jungleMaybe hearts were made to pum bloodMaybe lungs were made for floodI won't blunt my blade for cut these chainsRather let my limbs be drug through mudYou're my brother but your eyes are coldYou're my sister but your womb is bareI bet your mother would be proud of youI bet your mother would be proud of youBad man don't existNo evil man existsI know good man don't existNo righteous man existsStrong man don't existNo undying man existsWeak man don't existNo just flesh and blood exists
