my heart is beating hard although it s reckless and abandon do your best to understand lil honey i do not care for most possessions for i m possessed by something other than the foreign things we buy ourselves with money i do not have to run the race beside the man inside this place of sharp turns and suburban satisfaction baby don t mistake me for someone who doesn t ache i m the same as you with a different reaction i was born an animal wild wild animal i was born an animal animal my path is an endless path it s a long look in the mirror never do i near my destination for out here among the strange encounters i ve counted on my hands to fight and stand the trials and tribulations but don t take my words as crudity i ve got a gentle soul deep beneath the bricks and i got to haul myself around it yeah i m out here trying to do my best to stay alive among the the rapids and the lies that many a man have drowned in oh yeah yeah oh yeah this times are desparate times we spotted and surrounded by hounds and vultures lean and unforgiving we walk upon two legs as men we burn it down just to build again will not make a change to how we re living but i believe a change ll come for us and those who demand it for those who can t stand it living wild in the gutter and on that day the sun will burn like golden hammer and we will understand how and learn how to live with each other ah oh oh yeah ah oh awh oh oh yeah
