Scorched Earth

It’s been here, and it’s been why.

I’ve been clear. Ain’t gonna lie.

You take it past the point of try.

I’m in my head, with powder dry.

It’s been why, and it’s been here.

Shots across the bough rings crystal clear.

Scorhed earth plans, not shed a tear.

You make your bed. You, my dear?

I don’t play. I think you should know.

Not looking back when I decide to go.

You gonna lose, not place or show.

When I don’t care. Reap what you sow.

You decide. Wanna turn it around.

I’m keeping my word, honor bound.

Silence now. Yeah, I love that sound.

What once was lost. Hope is found.
