I just have to ask you
What's it gonna take
To smash you to your senses
Before your core will break

The yoke is on your shoulders
It's ripping up your back
You've loaded it with reasons
To stay just where you're at

Bring the whip on down
There is rain in the sound of your voice
Keep your eyes to the ground
There is grace to be found in no choice

I just have to ask you
Where'd you learn to talk
Your concepts are amazing
But you don't walk the walk

Just look at your hands shaking
Every time I'm in your space
The indifference you are faking
Is betrayed by your own face

Bring the whip on down
There is rain in the sound of your voice
keep your eyes to the ground
There is grace to be found in no choice

I just have to ask you
What's it gonna take
for you to pay attention
To all your past mistakes

You are a culmination
Of the history you make
You're prolonging confrontation
When you have and eat your cake

Bring the whip on down
There is rain in the sound of your voice
Keep your eyes to the ground
There is grace to be found in no choice
(repeat)
