Met under moonlight

On the heels of my mother

Might as well Cgo make a name for myGself

His legend's in the air
I've had my reservations
But F**** if he ain't there
He bGlends in with the background
With a red tail kinda stare
DI'll never know how but He's everywhereVerseYeah the Dman in the box
He's up before the sun
He Flooks out of the window at everything he's done
GGroceries for the hungry
Shelter for the young
Still Dmy premonition tells me I should runChorusDHonestly
What do you what do you Bmwant from me
I'm just a guy with a sCtrong determination
To Gcruise and keep a cFhasing these tDails
until the new crew in town takes my spot
Should I Dlisten
To my county line intBmuition
Will I be the hero or Ckilled on the scene
Tell me Gthis: Does the Fking of the
cDountry keep his crown if he locks

VerseThe Dman in the box
I wonder if he knows
When the Fsun's down and moon's out
And he's slippin' through the rows
With sGmoke thick from his oak
stick like a firefly on his nose
That DI can put an end to him
But choose to let him goVerseHey Dman in the box
I've wondered all these years
What Fkeeps your on your rusty throne
Is it passion, is it fear?
Does dEmivine or malign define
what's in Gbetween those ears
‘Cause eDvery time I hear thunder someone disappearsChorusDHonestly
What do you what do you Bmwant from me
I'm just a guy with a sCtrong determination
To Gcruise and keep a chFasing these
tDails until the new crew in town takes my spot
Should I lDisten
To my county line intBmuition
Will I be the hero or Ckilled on the scene
Tell me tGhis
Does the Fking of the Dcountry
keep his crown if he locks

VerseThe man in the Dbox
He's gotta know I'm starving
I'm Frun down but this blood hound
smells pretty girls at the party
EbNot for you little number two we're
really doing this aren't we
DHonestly **** it I'm ******* you up
you're a ***** and my names on the marquisVerseDMan in the box
What the hell have you done
Last Fthing I heard was
Now there's blood in my lungs
Is this Ebreally how I die?
Do you do this for fun?
DMake me a statue
Like father like son close my Deyes
Now I see
After all this Dtime
Maybe the man in the box is DmeOutroI give thanks to the Lord
That gave its life today
I respect it in death as I respected in in life
May every part that be used
Be put to good use
And may its sacrifice feed the ones I love
Amen
