Cut to the quick.
Cut to the bone.
Cuts on the sick.
Cuts on their homes.
Cut to the chase.
Cut to the core.
Cuts on their face.
Blood on the floor.
Give me my cut
Give me my due
Give me enough but
Nothing for you
Cut out the nonsense
Cut out the lies
Cut off the weak
Cut off their cries
Give me my cut
Give to us few
Give all I want
For them not a sou
Cut to the shot
Cut on my cue
Cut out the rot
To whom nothing is due
Give me my cut
Give me what's right
Give me a beacon
I'll cut off their light
Cut off the many
Just make them pay
Don't give them any
It's mine anyway
Cut off their hope
Cut out their heart
Just give me my cut
I need a fresh start
Cut them all down
Like so many trees
They make no sound
When they cease to be
Cut them a break
No that's not the way
Give them no voice
They've nothing to say
Cut them all down
Like so many trees
They make no sound
When they cease to be
Cut them a break
No that's not the way
Give them no voice
They've nothing to say
Cut to the quick.
Cut to the bone.
It makes me sick.
To call this my home.

One of your best. Ranks up there with Lin Manuel Miranda.
What a sad day yesterday was. Just when I think it can't get any worse, it does.
