Lyrics
CRUSADER
I try to build you up
But then he goes and cuts you down
I help you straighten up
But then he twists you all around
How can you trust him
When you know just how hes working you
I get disgusted
Cuz I see how much hes hurting you
Oh cant you see all the things that Id be
Ill be your crusader
And your liberator
Your facilitator
Ow-Ow-Ow
Look at him hes your dictator
And your agitator
Your manipulator
Ow-Ow-Ow
I give you belly laughs
But he gives you a belly ache
Im pushin on the gas
But hes there pullin on the brake
Its so amazing how you stay
And let him toy with you
I get so crazy cuz I see how hes destroying you
