Bite the Hand That Feeds - Zero Down

I have no interest in self-preservation

Emptiness is like an old friend

I have no motive or any inclination

Of doing anything for any one again

I’ve been the patsy, I’ve been the fool

I’ve been the scapegoat, now all of that is through

Don’t want to sit and wonder when the end is near

Don’t want to know where I’ll be in 20 years

Because I bite the hand that feeds

Easy to call me selfish

After years of nurtured apprehension

I have no shame I take the blame

No more subordination

I gave up my self-esteem for a false security

And foolishly I chased that dream

That had to be force fed to me

Because I bite the hand that feeds

I play no part in hope that dwindles

Reality is such a change of pace

I see things now for what they are

And reality is such a different place

Nostalgia such a waste of time

So much life left to live

I can’t dwell on yesterday

I gotta take as much as I give

Bite the hand that feeds

Bite the hand that feeds

Bite the hand that feeds
