Beat down, beat red
Beat the odds and you’re left for dead
I know you never liked me and you’re never gonna see me again
Can’t run, can’t lie
Can’t live forever but I’m gonna try
Well I know you never liked me and you’re never gonna see me again
You’re a means to your own end
Blame luck, blame love
Blame the weather if that ain’t enough
I know you never liked me and you’re never gonna see me again
I’ll sweat, I’ll thrive
I’ll do what I have to do to survive
Well I know you never liked me I know I know
I’m the means to my own end
All this time I been wrong
Saving you from what you’ve done
Now you’ll find out on your own
Not today, not the next
But when I draw my final breath
They can carve into stone
You’re a means to your own end
You’re a means to your own end
You’re a means to your end
