Hostages Lyrics

[x2]
Begging and a-crying people (I don't want it)
Begging and a-crying people (I don't need it)
Begging and a-crying people (Soon won't be)
Begging and a-crying people all around me

[Chorus]
'Cause I just need to, need to make my mark
Negotiate, compromise, no, I'll just a continue on
Pow! Pow! Bullets to the right of me
Shattered glass the left
Duck, crawl, wounded on the floor
Still I continue

[Verse]
Nothing you say, nothing you say
Nothing can change my mind
To Jesus you pray, and to him you say "Don't make us stay, deliver us"

[Chorus]

[Verse]
Is this what it takes for me to make
For me to make you respond?
So here's what it takes, these are the stakes
To have a voice these days
'Cause I'm an energy vampire
Dying from starvation

[repeat to end]
Begging and a-crying people (I don't want it)
Begging and a-crying people (I don't need it)
Begging and a-crying people (Soon won't be)
Begging and a-crying people all around me
