[Verse 1] Pink map on a dirty wall Second place spray‑painted small Shouting like you broke the chain Prize you got was almost half to refrain Still too far from half that land Drawing borders in your hand Claiming crowns from empty air Talking big from a folding chair [Chorus] First of the losers Why you claim victory? (hey!) Winner was me And the ones you couldn't lead astray First of the losers Shouting down history You lost the only chance You had to walk away [Verse 2] You should send a word across To the red shirts you once crossed Apology you never gave To the colors that you crave You keep reaching for that gate Golden letters Heavy weight But your hunger at the door Is a debt we can’t ignore [Chorus] First of the losers Why you claim victory? (oh yeah) Winner was me And the ones you couldn’t manipulate First of the losers Drowning in your glory You didn’t win a thing Just a louder empty fate [Bridge] You say you’re standing tall But you’re wearing an old mask Salazar in a bright new suit Forgetting how fast they cast you off Above every slogan Above every flag you raise Are the minds you couldn’t move And the votes you couldn’t sway [Chorus] First of the losers Why you claim victory? Winner was me And the hearts you couldn’t confiscate First of the losers Carved in our memory You didn’t win We did And that won’t fade
