Victimized But you're in bed Stumble out And run dead If it ever paid To sell (a?) (start?) (star? *sigh*) Environment Make you smart Just another victim Just another victim Just another victim, kid I heard it once But not before (taking? or begging?) off And livin bored My hands are tied Webbed feet again Fell in behind And claim us dead(?) Just another victim Just another victim Just another victim Cast this (?) Give it up I'll lie to you (Blamin? Flamin? Played in?) Flame this (?) Pointed finger You fall apart Just another victim Just another victim Just another victim (fade to HOP) You played yourself now you point the finger How I've robbed and raped ya, bruised and scraped ya But those are just lies, cause in your eyes you've been victimized It's how you size it up, you disguise it up, and try to make it look Real To cover up the low self esteem you feel Introspection an afterthought, swimmin in guilt your favorite sport But now you're caught up in the undertow, You never knew a man could sink so low But now you know, cause you're John Doe In a black bag a tag on your toe I built the House I felt the Pain You're victimized but got no one to blame Just another victim You're just another victim, kid Just another victim You're just another victim kid Holy Godiva, I'm a survivor Feeling like DeNiro in Taxi Driver With Jodi Foster, and Harvy Kietel Looks like I'm walkin through a livin Hell So spark that L, and I'll get lifted Feelin the effects of what my spliff did Cause I'm gifted, I read Sun Tzu I bought a Gun too so you'll never come too The weight of the world ridin on my shoulders Cause I'm a soldier, I thought I told ya You're just another Victim You're just another Victim, kid You're just another Victim You're just another Victim, kid
