Apaches (Until It Breaks Demo No. 1) lyrics

[Intro: Mike Shinoda]
It goes a one, two, three...

[Verse 1: Mike Shinoda]
I was born with the hunger of a lion, the strength of a sun
I don’t need to sweat it when a competition come
Original style like an 808 drum
So I don’t run the track, no, I make the track run
My mama taught me words, my daddy built rockets
I put ’em both together, now tell me what I got
It's a pretty smart weapon, I can shoot it, I can drop it
But learn to respect it ’cause you clearly can’t stop it like that

[Verse 2: Mike Shinoda]
It ain't over ’cause the sharks on the left side, the snakes on the right
And anything you do, they wanna get a little bite
It really doesn’t matter if you’re wrong or if you’re right
’Cause once you get the teeth in, nothing really fights
And as for me, I do it like I got nothing to lose
And you can run your mouth like you could try to fill my shoes
But steady little soldier, I ain’t standing next to you
I’d be laying on the ground before you’re even in my view, like that
