[Verse 1]
I've talked the talk
I've walked the walk
It's taken ten fucking years
For them to see I don't need their approval
I've paid the piper, I've stayed my course
Lived chomping at the bit
With only blood, sweat and tears to adhere to

[Chorus]
Open your eyes and see that it's so menacing
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury
Give 'til there's nothing left
Value in every breath
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury

[Verse 2]
Take it for granted
Forsake the cost
Wear a big shit-eating grin
With only blood, sweat and tears to adhere to
Now bear the burden to chase your fate
Grind your teeth 'til it fucking hurts
So they can see I don't need their approval

[Chorus]
Open your eyes and see that it's so menacing
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury
Give 'til there's nothing left
Value in every breath
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury
[Bridge]
Seize the day
Take your beatings
Lead the way or decay as you fall down
You fall down

[Chorus]
Open your eyes and see that it's so menacing
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury
Give 'til there's nothing left
Value in every breath
You need to realize that bleeding is a luxury

[Outro]
It's a luxury
Bleeding is a luxury
