verse
I've been waiting patiently
I built this tower quietly
And when my well of Wellbutrin
Is running dry of serotonin
I can say things I don't mean
Or maybe it's the truth in me
I feel it building, bubbling up
chorus
I'm so misunderstood, but I live for this
My money's good and I came to win
So step on up, and I promise you
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat) only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat) only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
verse
I've been making my Gethsemane
Since I was young, my ancestry (cutthroat)
Was marching martyrdom across the
Radadadadumbla plains of Utah (cutthroat)
I can't lie, I've been played
By powerful people who get their way
But I, in time, will climb my mountain
chorus
I'm so misunderstood, but I live for this
My money's good and I came to win
So step on up, and I promise you
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat) only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive and it's not you
(Cutthroat) only one of us
Only one of us gon' make it out alive
outro
Get on the knee, get on the knee
Get on the knee, get on the knee
Get on the knee, get on the knee
Get on the knee, get on the knee
Cutthroat (get on the knee)
Cutthroat (get on the knee)
(Get-get-get) cutthroat (get-get-get)
(Get-get-get-get-get-get) cutthroat
