lyrics

Misplaced consent
Disgraced, repent
Consequences trading places

Token display
Own your mistake
Customary airs and graces
Bent on saving your two faces

Dare to overstep and question why
I can buy your silence at a price that I decide

Take this wrecking ball
Holding it tight
Act as if there's nothing there to hide
Pay no mind at all
We can set this right
Just lay yourself out on my dynamite

Allies onside
It's your word against mine
All that work to earn their respect
Pays off when the motive's suspect

Dare to overstep and question why
I can buy your silence at a price that I decide

Take this wrecking ball
Holding it tight
Act as if there's nothing there to hide
Pay no mind at all
We can set this right
Just lay yourself out on my dynamite

Take this wrecking ball
Holding it tight
Act as if there's nothing there to hide
Pay no mind at all
We can set this right
Just lay yourself out on my dynamite
