 Each Other's Throat 
 We are supposed to be sisters and brothers
 But all we do is constantly dog one another
 We are supposed to act as each other's cover
 But we keep at each other's throat
 Each other's throat
 Each other's throat
 Yo, it ain't no joke
 We're at each other's throat
 Aowl, Aowl
 
 We are supposed to spread love and not evil
 But we've been acting more like heathens than people
 Treating our fellow man far worse than illegal
 Cause we keep at each other's throat
 Each other's throat
 Each other's throat
 Yo, it ain't no joke
 We're at each other's throat
 Aowl, Aowl
 
 Ut oh, 11 o'clock pm and here's the news
 Another fatality caused by a family feud
 Charged, tried, sentenced by the jury of a brother's gun
 Made sister's fiancee's wedding never to be sung
 He didn't like the way he treated the girl
 So the boy played God, pow, he ended his world
 
 He made a plea for temporary insanity
 But left his sister insane permanently
 This ain't new, this stuff happens everyday
 Somebody doesn't like someone so they blow them away
 Too fast for reason, too quick to negotiate
 
 Regret and sorrow happens a split second too late
 Jealousy for power, greed for possession
 Selfishness so you give someone a faked out impression
 Speaking of which I'm truly not impressed
 So if seeing is believin'
 I don't wanna see the mess
 
 Heartless are we on the straight with no chaser
 As if for negativity we got the vapors
 Know as I love me so I do love my neighbor
 Cause we are too busy at each other's throat
 
 Each other's throat
 Each other's throat
 Yo, it ain't no joke
 We're at each other's throat
 Aowl, Aowl...
