Aww man, so little time, so much to deal with   It seems like everything passes me on, turns me off, messes me up, draws me in   Or just plain bums me out   I crack my head and I try to get over it   I stub my toes and I try to pass under it   My existence is like trying to breath in a big rock   I inhale and it hits me hard   I pay guys with guns to protect me from guys with guns   Some man in a suit is tellin' me to drop dead so I can live happily ever after   There's a guy in the mirror whose always in my face   Aw man, sometimes I think I'm goin' insane      Bridge: don't lose your mind when you're running through a mine field   Don't stop rollin' when you're rolling on the real wheel   You've got a lot to lie right in the eye   And not be afraid to see too clearly   Makes no difference if it's night or day   Well take a look around and say...      Chorus: it's wartime (x4)      Yeah you know what I'm talkin' about man   That's exactly what I'm talkin' about   The most important thing is to maintain   Sometimes it's all you can do is just to maintain   Sometimes it's all you can do is go and put a gun to your brain   Sometimes it's all you can do just to maintain   Lookin' out on the streets seein' those screaming rats racin'   Runnin' wild like mindless idiots will run wild   I can't believe the groove they's use   Years, eyes cried, feelings, eyes lie   Talkin' bout changin' but remaining the same   Shameless, meanless, free from blame, man   It's enough to make you wanna do somethin' down right stupid   It's enough to make you wanna do somethin' down right sick      Bridge      Chorus   So now you know what the deal is   The time is wartime, wartime is here, it's all around you   You can't close your eyes and make it go away   You be alive right here, right now, right here, here and now   It's who you're dealing with   ............ 24 hours a day warpath reality   It's a full time thing, you gotta deal with it   You hang on, you'll be alright   You gotta keep movin' in a positive forward direction   If you let them, they will destroy you   Don't let them - save yourself   They will not destroy me      Bridge      Chorus
