Machine Head
The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears (Live)
[Spoken Intro]
"Yeah holy shit, look at all these out motherfuckers out here in Hartford I didn't know there was this many fuckers here and there. Hell yeah, this next song I'm going to do for you here is going out for all the people who like to drink a little bit of vodka and a little bit of beer, this song is called The Blood, The Sweat, The Beers"
Oh yes I've walked the path that's righteous
Many men have walked before
And this pain cell, the broken shell
Scraped, shackled onto the floor
So welcome to the world that I lived in
Puking up bile and hate
My world has turned
To false inclusion
Sickening broken state
But then I'd see
There's things in me
That make me want it
More than you
But I deny all this
'Cause pain was my bliss
Get wasted on self-destruct
So hold on to the edge
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength
Built through the years
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength
Built through the years
A tribute to...
Oh yes I walk the path
That gives me
Confidence strong and pure
Now I realize
That freedom rises
From confronting the source
I built these walls around me
And I can break them all away
I'll focus all the strength I call
Into unstoppable energy
So hold on to the edge
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength
Built through the years
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength
Built through the years
A tribute to...
Take this
Need focus
Command this
To Take
Hold on
I'm not falling
Please let go
Hold on
I'm not falling
Not falling down again
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength
Built through the years
It's all about
The blood, the sweat, the tears
A tribute to the strength
Built through the years
Believe me that
Time will sear the wound
Time will sear the wound
Time will sear the wound
