I AM ABOMINATION LYRICS

"Hangin' On"

Word is not bond
Not a handshake proven true
Lured to the table
With the promise of prosper, I bought in
They say that you hold what it takes
They say that you have it
Flashing the world in your face
They want you to reach out and grab it all
A pen in our hands
Our backs against the wall

We are the product
We are the work horse
(We're simply the)
Copies of copies filed with no remorse
(No remorse)

[Chorus:]
They'll rip the promise from the pages
Don't sign your life away
Take me back to the day
When I could easily say
That persistence and devotion
Would pave my way
Oppressor, enforcer, how could you?
Your machine is fueled by all our youth
So go ahead
And sell 'em somethin' to gaze upon
(I'm not done)
So fuck you, I'm hangin' on

[Solo 1/2]

Blatant perjury
Despite what they told me
Shame on me for being young and naive
Shame on you for taking advantage of me

Well how can the fight be
Considered a good one
If both the opponents
Just lose in the long run
Lose it all
A pen in your hand
Your back against the wall

We are the product
We are the work horse
(We're simply the)
Copies of copies filed with no remorse
(No remorse)

[Chorus:]
They'll rip the promise from the pages
Don't sign your life away
Take me back to the day
When I could easily say
That persistence and devotion
Would pave my way
Oppressor, enforcer, how could you?
Your machine is fueled by all our youth
So go ahead
And sell 'em somethin' to gaze upon
(I'm not done)
So fuck you, I'm hangin' on

[Solo 2/2]

Sign right here for success
Don't forget to cross your T's
And dot your I's
Relinquish your rights

How does one see with eyes so green?
This illusion of partnership
Dictates a dismal reality

[Chorus:]
They'll rip the promise from the pages
Don't sign your life away
Take me back to the day
When I could easily say
That persistence and devotion
Would pave my way
Oppressor, enforcer, how could you?
Your machine is fueled by all our youth
So go ahead
And sell 'em somethin' to gaze upon
It's all you're depending on
