Lyrics
Down on your knees you'll be left behind.
This is the beginning.
Watch what you think they can read your mind.
This is the beginning.
I got my moxie, and in my eyes
This is the beginning.
Well, my reflection I don't recognize
This is the beginning.
We think we've climbed so high
Up all the backs we've condemned.
We'll face the consequence.
This is the beginning of the end.
You wait your turn, you'll be last in line.
This is the beginning.
Get out the way, 'cause I'm getting mine.
This is the beginning
God helps the ones that can help themselves.
This is the beginning.
May be too late as far as I can tell.
This is the beginning.
We think we've come so far,
On all the lives we've taken
They say no consequence.
This is the beginning of the end.
