I Am The Weapon lyrics

Who would I be if I never met A teacher, a priest, or a prophet? What do I need, tell me, what does it mean? Am I livin' or dyin' the dream? Youth is broken Half of it was stolen by a world I can't unsee Youth is broken Half of it was stolen Look what you've done to me I was a target, I was the mission You had the power, your ammunition Now I'm the message, this is a lesson Here in the present, I am the weapon Now I'm the message, this is a lesson Here in the present, I am the weapon Your concept of love and your hunger for war Tell me, which one should I die for? 'Cause I am a product of how I was brought up This cycle spins out of control Youth is broken Half of it was stolen by a world I can't unsee Youth is broken Half of it was stolen Look what you've done to me I was a target, I was the mission You had the power, your ammunition Now I'm the message, this is a lesson Here in the present, I am the weapon Now I'm the message, this is a lesson Here in the present, I am the weapon Am I livin' or dyin' the dream? Am I livin' or dyin' the dream? Youth is broken Half of it was stolen by a world I can't unsee Youth is broken Half of it was stolen Look what you've done to me I was a target, I was the mission You had the power, your ammunition Now I'm the message (now I'm the message), this is a lesson (this is a lesson) Here in the present (here in the present), I am the weapon Now I'm the message (I am the weapon), this is a lesson (I am the weapon) Here in the present (I am the weapon), I am the weapon
