blood for blood — Machine Head

I bite the hand 'cause this hand feeds off me Devoid of emotion, it lives to cheat Ignorance is bliss, and respect I gave you Friend you did claim this Too bad you can't speak the truth

Chorus

Give respect 'Cause the rule is blood for blood

Beatings is what you'll inherit this time Fast bait, your new name Your pain is my shine Pulverize and break Determination Pleasure I negate Your pain brings me salvation

Chorus

I was born of tension Anger came from frustration I can't back down from aggression Some hard knocks taught me this lesson

Chorus
