New tune guys... it started from the title / lyrics, which i have never done before. Normally I write the guitar part first and the other stuff comes after that.

Lyrics:

whippin' boy

hey man
you got nothing to say?
time that you fought back
hey c'mon man ,
make my day
Won't they cut you no slack?

they got your number,
and they got your name
they got you stuck on the track
wont take it easy,
won't waste no time,
there ain't no goin' back

you been walkin'
with your head held down
beaten' up on yourself
you been actin like
Your some kinda clown
like your ringing a bell

you let them knock you,
you let them beat you,
its like your locked in a cell
they stigmatize
and mistreat you
your just an empty shell

you just a
whipping boy

Your just a prisoner
Of your own mind
A place that you can't escape,
You can't break out
You won't even try
It looks a little too late

they stripped you down
they took all you had
they left you empty inside
you stood and watched them
Breaking you down
You let them sell you the lie

you dignify
and appease them
for you there ain't no way out
you did it all
all by yourself
you lost your mind on the way

you let them knock you,
you let them beat you,
its like your locked in a cell
they stigmatize
and mistreat you
your just an empty shell

you just a
whipping boy
