Measured In Gray Lyrics - Coalesce

I'm listening but I can't believe the arrogance 

I'm constantly bombarded with 

If I were a lazy man I could swallow the debt you put us in 

But now I fear that maybe I can't roll with these punches 

I don't want to be that man 

Independence is all me have 

But that's now becoming a joke by your actions 

I don't want to be that man who let it all go 

And found out how sweet revenge really is 

So sweet, it consumed me and pushed me toward crime 

Oh, only if you put in the hours I have to make this work 

Put in the time I think you want me to beg for what I work so hard for 

Simple independence 

All I ever wanted was for everyone to be content and safe 

I won't be that man
