1
Aww man, so little time, so much to deal with
2
It seems like everything passes me on, turns me off, messes me up, draws me in
3
Or just plain bums me out
4
I crack my head and I try to get over it
5
I stub my toes and I try to pass under it
6
My existence is like trying to breath in a big rock
7
I inhale and it hits me hard
8
I pay guys with guns to protect me from guys with guns
9
Some man in a suit is tellin' me to drop dead so I can live happily ever after
10
There's a guy in the mirror whose always in my face
11
Aw man, sometimes I think I'm goin' insane
12
Bridge: don't lose your mind when you're running through a mine field
13
Don't stop rollin' when you're rolling on the real wheel
14
You've got a lot to lie right in the eye
15
And not be afraid to see too clearly
16
Makes no difference if it's night or day
17
Well take a look around and say...
18
Chorus: it's wartime (x4)
19
Yeah you know what I'm talkin' about man
20
That's exactly what I'm talkin' about
21
The most important thing is to maintain
22
Sometimes it's all you can do is just to maintain
23
Sometimes it's all you can do is go and put a gun to your brain
24
Sometimes it's all you can do just to maintain
25
Lookin' out on the streets seein' those screaming rats racin'
26
Runnin' wild like mindless idiots will run wild
27
I can't believe the groove they's use
28
Years, eyes cried, feelings, eyes lie
29
Talkin' bout changin' but remaining the same
30
Shameless, meanless, free from blame, man
31
It's enough to make you wanna do somethin' down right stupid
32
It's enough to make you wanna do somethin' down right sick
33
Bridge
34
Chorus
35
So now you know what the deal is
36
The time is wartime, wartime is here, it's all around you
37
You can't close your eyes and make it go away
38
You be alive right here, right now, right here, here and now
39
It's who you're dealing with
40
............ 24 hours a day warpath reality
41
It's a full time thing, you gotta deal with it
42
You hang on, you'll be alright
43
You gotta keep movin' in a positive forward direction
44
If you let them, they will destroy you
45
Don't let them - save yourself
46
They will not destroy me
47
Bridge
48
