DEVOTION Songtext
von meija

I′m stubborn as hell
I'm a bull in a china shop
Won′t stop ringing the bell
'Til there's no one left hearing it
I′m in for the kill
Yeah I deal with it
I′m Sisyphus
Pushing up on that hill
Maybe it's fate but I′m still fighting it

Only say what I mean
Only take what I want when I need it
And I need it


'Cause when it′s over
Yeah I'll have nothing to show but the feeling
I′ll wanna break
But I won't let the heat touch the bone
Yeah I'll make myself go through the motions
′Cause when it′s over
I'll paint a picture and they won′t see past it
The oldest son of the only son standing alone
Won't let go because I′ve got devotion

I put on a face when I know trouble's coming
But I don′t count it a joy
The truth is my words, they mean nothing

Grudges burn slowly
I could play holy
Tell myself it's for a cause
Never face judgment
'Cause I′m too busy carrying a cross

And when it′s over
Yeah I'll have nothing to show but the feeling
I′ll wanna break
But I won't let the heat touch the bone
Yeah I′ll make myself go through the motions

'Cause when it′s over
I'll paint a picture and they won't see past it
The oldest son of the only son standing alone
Won′t let go because I′ve got devotion


I, I, I've got devotion
I′ve got devotion
I, I, I've got devotion
I′ve got devotion
I, I, I've got devotion
I′ve got devotion
I, I, I've got devotion
I've got devotion

Is it devotion?
Or is it my will′s too strong?
Is it generational?
And it keeps passing along?
I got it from my father
And he got it from his
Got this fight in me
And I gave it to my kid
