We're all judged in time
You oughta know, you oughta know better
You oughta know better than to bait your jailer
You oughta know better than to bait your jailer
But how can you seek redemption
So how will you lay your penance down?
I know you and your sins, your retributions
How can you ask for forgiveness?
We all pay in time
You oughta know better than to bite who feeds you
You oughta know better than to test your luck
We're all judged in time
Now that we bear the weight of your arrogance?
How do you know when the cuts are deep enough?
So how will you lay your penance down?
So how will you clear your conscience
But who will you blame your troubles on now?
I've heard enough of your forked tongue
How can you think that your crimes are victimless?
I know you like your stabs, your preemptive attacks
We all pay in time
So how will you clear your conscience
You oughta know, you oughta know better
I know you and your cons, your petty little bombs
I know you and your sins, your retributions
But how will you hold your demons down?
Using alibis?
So how will you clear your conscience
When your lies unwind?
When your clock unwinds?
How do you deal with the consequence
