[Verse 1]
Well, I am just a mutt
And nowhere is my home
Where dignity's a land mine in the
School of lost hope
I've panhandled for life
'Cause I'm not afraid to beg
Hand me down your lost and founds of
Second hand regret
[Pre-Chorus]
You better swallow your pride or
You're gonna choke on it
You better digest your values
'Cause they turn to shit
[Chorus]
Honor's gonna knock you down
Before your chance to stand up and fight
Well, I know I'm not the one, I got no pride
[Verse 2]
Well, sects of disconnection and
Traditions of lost faith
No culture's worth a stream of piss or a
Bullet in my face
To hell with unity
Separation will kill us all
Torn to shreds and disjointed
Before the final fall
[Pre-Chorus]
You better swallow your pride or
You're gonna choke on it
You better digest your values
'Cause they turn to shit
[Chorus]
Honor's gonna knock you down
Before your chance to stand up and fight
Well, I know I'm not the one, I got no pride
Shuh!
[Pre-Chorus]
You better swallow your pride or
You're gonna choke on it
You better digest your values
'Cause they turn to shit
[Chorus]
Honor's gonna knock you down
Before your chance to stand up and fight
Well, I know I'm not the one, I got no pride
[Outro]
I got no pride
Close your eyes and die
I got no pride
Well, I am just a mutt
And nowhere is my home
Where dignity's a land mine in the
School of lost hope
I've panhandled for life
'Cause I'm not afraid to beg
Hand me down your lost and founds of
Second hand regret
[Pre-Chorus]
You better swallow your pride or
You're gonna choke on it
You better digest your values
'Cause they turn to shit
[Chorus]
Honor's gonna knock you down
Before your chance to stand up and fight
Well, I know I'm not the one, I got no pride
[Verse 2]
Well, sects of disconnection and
Traditions of lost faith
No culture's worth a stream of piss or a
Bullet in my face
To hell with unity
Separation will kill us all
Torn to shreds and disjointed
Before the final fall
[Pre-Chorus]
You better swallow your pride or
You're gonna choke on it
You better digest your values
'Cause they turn to shit
[Chorus]
Honor's gonna knock you down
Before your chance to stand up and fight
Well, I know I'm not the one, I got no pride
Shuh!
[Pre-Chorus]
You better swallow your pride or
You're gonna choke on it
You better digest your values
'Cause they turn to shit
[Chorus]
Honor's gonna knock you down
Before your chance to stand up and fight
Well, I know I'm not the one, I got no pride
[Outro]
I got no pride
Close your eyes and die
I got no pride
