Mercy is a Mistake

Don't Bite the hand that feeds lyrics Verse I I gave them rain in the famine. I gave them warmth in the frost. I loosened the chains from their trembling hands And counted none of the cost. I stayed my hand from the thunder. I quieted fire and flood. I let them curse my name in the dark While I answered them only with love. I thought that kindness would mend them. I thought that mercy would save. Pre-Chorus But mercy is a blade That dulls itself in the grave. Chorus Mercy was a mistake. I see that clearly now. I should have let the lightning fall. I should have burned it down. I gave them grace — they sharpened it. I gave them light — they sold it. I offered open hands in peace, They filled them up with stones. Mercy was a mistake. And I won’t make it twice. Verse II They built their false idols higher Than the sky I held in place. They bowed to gods with smaller minds And spit into my face. They called my silence weakness. They called my patience fear. But what is fear to something That was here before their years? I spared them when they faltered. I forgave them when they lied. But every time I turned away, They crucified my pride. Pre-Chorus Compassion makes a ruler soft. Soft things decay. Chorus Mercy was a mistake. I carved that truth in stone. The world mistook my open palm As proof I had no throne. I gave them breath — they cursed it. I gave them time — they wasted. I held the storm behind my teeth While they called me overrated. Mercy was a mistake. And now the debt is due. Bridge Do you know how hard it is To hold back oceans? Do you know how heavy A restrained god feels? You prayed for patience. You begged for grace. Now pray For something else. Final Chorus Mercy was a mistake. I let you grow too bold. You thought my silence meant I’d died. You thought I’d grown too old. No more warnings in the thunder. No more lessons in the rain. If love was what you squandered — Then you will learn through pain. Mercy was a mistake. And I am done being kind.
