Just like a needle in a haystack Another day when we run with the wolf pack

Everybody wants a piece when you know how You don't want to be on this side of know

When you see the horizon fading And the bad lives all start changing

When your fate pulls up in the flat black fading You don't want to leave them waiting

Cause they'll hook you up, they'll watch you drown They've got us pegged for life in the ground

They build the walls that house the sharks in They sell us torches and they're the ones

who make it dark When this life tries to break us and beat us down

They send a beast just to push us around And we barely exist, we're one foot in the grave

And this life ain't over, we've still got something to say

Redemption Oh, redemption

Living too long won't make it right You don't want to bring a knife to a gunfight

You don't want to realize but they write down You don't want to be around in a dog pound

When the chain's not far from breakin' And the hand that feeds is takin'

Get your fears wrapped up and you got locked up

In the statements, cause you're lyin' on the pavement

Cause they'll hook you up, they'll watch you drown

They've got us picked for a life in the ground

They build the walls, they house sharks and

They sell us torches and they know what to make you die

When this life tries to break us and beat us down

They send a beast just to push us around

And we might exist with one foot in the grave

And this life ain't over, we still got something to say

Redemption, oh -oh -oh -oh -oh

Redemption, oh -oh -oh -oh -oh

The blood and the sweat, you know where you're at

They took what you had, now they'll take it back

The blood and the sweat, you know where you're at

They took what you had, now they'll take it back

When this life tries to break us and beat us down

They send a beast just to push us around

And we might exist with one foot in the grave

And this life ain't over, we still got something to say

Redemption, oh -oh -oh -oh -oh

Redemption, oh -oh -oh -oh -oh

Redemption
