Face of Danger

By the skin of my teeth, by the sweat of my brow

I made it through but you don't know how

When it's a matter of life or death

I'll drag it out so don't hold your breath

Put me in danger and I feel no fear

Take somethin' from me and I'll shed no tears

I'm self contained and I got what I need

You have to work hard just to see me bleed

Oh, laughin' in the face of danger, oh, embrace passion with a stranger

Oh, laughin' in the face of danger, oh, embrace passion with a stranger

Yeah, I don't need your love, yeah, I'm gonna spill your blood

Sliding down on a slippery slope

A ringside seat and you'll earn your robes

I have to confess that I feel no shame

I'm gonna have fun playin' out this game

It's true that the dead men tell no tales

I'll be the judge when you tip the scales

Where's the intelligence that comes with age?

I don't need religion or a self-help sage

Oh, laughin' in the face of danger, oh, embrace passion with a stranger

Oh, laughin' in the face of danger, oh, embrace passion with a stranger

Yeah, I don't need your love, yeah, I'm gonna spill your blood

My path has been laced with anger in the past but I laugh

In the face of danger, I've been asked to embrace a stranger

As I labor through for the sakes of neighbors

Harassed 'cause of race relations, but I walk a straight path in a wasted nation

See me defend as I push through places in an effort to suppress and to test

My patience but I make immovable object, ultimate victor in an

In an immovable context, they come test like a thief in the night

But my foundation run as deep as my height, the dark knight fights

Feelin's trying to sabotage, you dressed in camouflage

But my grounded laws standin' firm like a camera pod

Fill the prescription like a doctor, no weapons formed against me shall prosper

Oh, laughin' in the face of danger, oh, embrace passion with a stranger

Oh, laughin' in the face of danger, oh, embrace passion with a stranger

Yeah, I don't need your love, yeah, I'm gonna spill your blood
