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