[Verse 1] Justice will prevail, you say I’ve seen that script before The winner salts the pages Then calls it law and more They paint the cage gold Then hand you the key But every throne I touched Had a lie in the seam [Pre-Chorus] Who gets the crown? Who gets to name it? Who gets to write What the whole world’s saying? [Chorus] The strong do what they can The weak bleed what they must (what they must) The strong do what they can And call it holy trust (call it trust) The strong do what they can I hear the verdict fall (hear it fall) The strong do what they can Till the liars own it all [Verse 2] History wears a grin With blood under the lace Every “truth” they sell Has a winner’s face You can hear the crowd When the story bends One man’s justice Is another’s end [Pre-Chorus] Who gets the crown? Who gets to frame it? Who gets the fire And who gets blamed for it? [Chorus] The strong do what they can The weak bleed what they must (what they must) The strong do what they can And call it holy trust (call it trust) The strong do what they can I hear the verdict fall (hear it fall) The strong do what they can Till the liars own it all [Bridge] If you want the truth You’ll have to dig for bones Under every anthem Under every stone Let the towers shake Let the masks come down If justice has a face It’s not wearing that crown [Final Chorus] The strong do what they can The weak bleed what they must (what they must) The strong do what they can And call it holy trust (call it trust) The strong do what they can But I won’t sing along (I won’t sing) The strong do what they can And still the lie feels wrong
