[Verse 1] Built the noose and called it law Preached lies breed fear Crowds cheer death from clean white hands Day of judgement is near [Instrumental break] [Chorus] SPIT! On the gallows SPIT! On the gallows [Verse 2] Paper crowns, iron tongues Sentence signed in silence Rules are weapons, ropes are proof Power lives in violence [Instrumental break] [Chorus] SPIT! On the gallows SPIT! On the gallows [Bridge] No prayers fit this throat No pardon buys my breath I spit on the gallows And give you back your death [Guitar solo] [Chorus] SPIT! On the gallows SPIT! On the gallows [Chorus] SPIT! On the gallows SPIT! On the gallows [Instrumental outro]
