lyrics

Just pull the wool over my eyes
It makes it easier to pretend I can ignore you.
Yea, you.

When I walk on the street, there is no denying your name.
We've all cursed you before, yea you're the Weight,

It weights the poor man down
It makes him collapse to the ground
You make every muscle ache
Yea you are the Weight.

It puts the cracks in the wall, it breaks the floor when it falls
It makes me sink when I just wanna fly.

My bitter enemy, yea I know you.
You're all the second guesses in the way of greatness
A grindstone against my frontal lobe, everlasting
If I ever shrug you off, man I'll never return to the oxen

You'll feel it in your stomach
When you're ready to stop being so afraid.

It makes me feel a little bitter inside whenever I feel you hold me back.
So let me show you a little how winning's done
Let me pick up that weight, and I'll throw it down.
