Lyrics for "The Downfall"
Got people raised in the streets, Not enough money to eat, Beggin at your feet, Brother can you spare some change, As you look the other way, It all came, Rushin back, The poverty that's gotten me, Trippin like it's some disease, Reach out a hand to feed, The willing, it's chilling, The way society pictures me, The land of the free? Yeah maybe if you count the free clinics, All hope diminished, This existance, It's just not workin right, Put up a fight, Show your fellow man some appreciaton, Their determination, Got them wastin, Their lives away, Just for a break, A chance to escape this fate, So maybe next time you'll do the right thing And offer up some change
It's all about the money right? Too bad the poor outnumber the wealthy
It's all bout us livin right? Kids on the streets just dyin for you to live free
It's all about the givin right? Take what you can and forget the rest
It's all about the hate inside, Overpower the love and let the hate just fill your chest
Take a walk in the shoes of the demented, And live it, You'll find he's livin within his own prison, A caged mind, So unkind, One single instance And you're second guessin, You're the victim, For not seeing things, It's Deeper than you could've dreamed, Inside these echoing screams, They shatter this sequence, Left shivering beneath your feet then, Maybe then you'll realize, It's not always about your pride, Swallow it, Take a chance and let your guard down, Not everyone in this life is out to get you now, Open your eyes,Just count how many times you've been blessed, Live with no regrets, Release your fears and take a deep breath, Next time you need an answer, Just search within your chest
It's all about the money right? Too bad the poor outnumber the wealthy
It's all bout us livin right? Kids on the streets just dyin for you to live free
It's all about the givin right? Take what you can and forget the rest
It's all about the hate inside, Overpower the love and let the hate just fill your chest
We've got people in the streetlights cryin, Wishin for a better life, Through all their strife, They try and fight, Keep their faith alive, They won't be denied, Hard times just keep gettin harder, Lookin to barder, Make a deal with the devil, If it gets their kids a better tomorrow, Overtaken by sorrow, I see these things on a daily basis, There's no erasin, This memory, It's chasin me, Through the dark times, Just realise it'll be alright, Awaken to another day, No need to kneel and pray, There's no-one there to save, Look within yourself and face your demons, Just believe in, Every action you make and then, It will all make sense again, I'm not sayin i'm right, But do what you gotta do to make it through the night
