It Doesn't Matter
Five Finger Death Punch Lyrics

I've wasted a lot of time and effort on motherfuckers like you
The singer is tired of wasting time and energy on people who do not deserve it.

Now it's my turn
It is time for the singer to take control.

One, two, three, fuck you!
A strong insult aimed at the person being addressed.

You can run away from anything that you have ever done
You try to escape responsibility for your actions, but this is not possible.

You're a victim to the system, you're a knife and I'm a gun
You allow external factors to control you, while the singer is able to take charge.

You want to be a martyr but you can not take the pain
You crave attention and pity, but have no capacity to endure hardship.

You're a voice without an echo, you're a drop and I'm the rain
Your words and actions have no impact or influence, while the singer is powerful and consequential.

You want me to just turn the other cheek
You expect the singer to let you off the hook and not hold you accountable.

Want me to admit that I am weak
You want the singer to acknowledge their inferiority and vulnerability.

Want me to submit? That ain't me, that ain't me
The singer is not one to give in or surrender.

You're so self righteous
You have a strong sense of your own moral superiority.

And you're never going to change
The singer doubts that you have the capacity or willingness to improve.

You're sick and spineless
You lack strength and integrity.

You're the fake and I'm the fame
The singer is more authentic and genuine than you and has more renown and success.

You can't convince me life is fair
You try to argue that things are just, but the singer does not believe this to be true.

'Cause you were never even there
The singer notes your absence or lack of support.

In the end it doesn't matter, matter at all
Ultimately, everything is inconsequential and insignificant.

That's why I never really cared
The singer has a nonchalant attitude towards things that do not matter.

'Cause I was never really scared
Fear does not control the singer.

I want to run away from everything I've ever said
The singer has regrets about their past words and actions.

It's hard to really care when everything I love is dead
The pain of loss has diminished the singer's ability to care.

Can't take away a single thing that I have ever done
The singer owns their past accomplishments and mistakes.

I'm learning from the burden and that's just half the fun
The singer is able to find positives in their struggles and challenges.

Want to wear the crown? Learn to bleed, learn to bleed
To achieve success, one must be willing to suffer and sacrifice.

You're dead and lifeless
The singer believes you to be soulless and unanimated.

You're a pawn within the game
You are a mere participant, manipulated by others with greater power.

Go!
A command to begin an action.

In the end it doesn't matter, matter, matter
Once again, everything is ultimately irrelevant.
