As you struggled to rise to your end

C          Am          Em         G    
I laughed hard at the insults we through

       C             Am          Em           
As the weight of the world found revenge

I drew first blood

That this was revenge

I drew first blood

Verse 4
C        Am
Here’s a story

      Em             G   
How a thief had been robbed

      C          Am        Em   G   
How a murder had stolen my rage

C           Am
Think of me Lord

I’m a few breaths away

      C             Am           Em        
As my lungs finally rip from the cage

Revenge, revenge
