Measured In Gray

I'm listening but I can't believe the arrogance

I'm constantly bombarded with

If I were a lazy man I could swallow the debt you put us in

But now I fear that maybe I can't roll with these punches

I don't want to be that man

Independence is all me have

But that's now becoming a joke by your actions

I don't want to be that man who let it all go

And found out how sweet revenge really is

So sweet, it consumed me and pushed me toward crime

Oh, only if you put in the hours I have to make this work

Put in the time I think you want me to beg for what I work so hard for

Simple independence

All I ever wanted was for everyone to be content and safe

I won't be that man
