Lyrics: Slave To The Grind
Album: Slave To The Grind
Artist: Skid Row
 

You got me forced to crack
My lids in two
I´m still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that
Leads the blind
I´m just another gear in the assembly
Line – oh no

The noose gets tighter around
My throat
But i ain´t at the end of my rope ´cause
I won´t be the one left behind
Can´t be king of the world
If you´re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can´t be king of the world
If you´re slave to the grind

Get it?

A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain´t even close
There´s no need to waste
Your prayers on me
You better mark my words
´cause i´m history
Yes indeed

You might beg for mercy to get by
But i´d rather tear this thorn
From my side

I won´t be the one left behind
You can´t be king of the world
If you´re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can´t be king of the world
If you´re slave to the grind

They swallowed thier daggers by
Turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart
Brick by brick
I´m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

They swallowed thier daggers by
Turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart
Brick by brick
I´m sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

I won´t be the one left behind

You can´t be king of the world
If you´re slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
You can´t be king of the world
If you´re slave to the grind

I said slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
