Lyrics

You don't get asked the right questions
You dodge the ones you get
I remember all your promises
Hopefully some of them won't be kept

You're fool to think the future won't understand
The way you leverage pawns in backdoor scams
Paid us no mind when we tried to reach you
History doesn't need another arrogant fool

Pride Stands Up, when the front door is locked
If you make love crawl, it'll learn to walk

I'm going to jump up and tell you who I am.
I'm not a small bug for you to slam
How can you listen when you make the walls higher
My gripe is not a candy-store desire.

You're fool to think the future won't understand
The way you leverage pawns in backdoor scams
Paid us no mind when we tried to reach you
History doesn't need another arrogant fool

Pride Stands Up, when the front door is locked
If you make love crawl, it'll learn to walk

You sacrifice your own people
And put the blame on us
We've all been bitten by mistakes
But respect only come by trust

You're fool to think the future won't understand
The way you leverage pawns in backdoor scams
Paid us no mind when we tried to reach you
History doesn't need another arrogant fool

Pride Stands Up, when the front door is locked
If you make love crawl, it'll learn to walk
