Give me the honor
Walk into the middle of the road
Give me the honor
How does it feel
Give me the honor
How does it look down there
Rolling
Rolling
Rolling
we've got your instigation
You're subject instigation
We've got your instigation
You're subject instigation
Under the spotlight
Appearing under the spotlight
I'll never run under the spotlight
Killing under your daylight
I won't under
Walking the line
Attribute the honor
Cash power one back drop silhouette
Attribute the honor
How does it feel to look in the mirror
Attribute the honor
Through the winds through the wind and then it goes
Rolling

We've got your instigation
You're subject instigation
We've got your instigation

Under the spotlight
Appearing under your spotlight
I'll never run under the daylight
Killing under the moonlight
I won't under
