Hated for living straight Who controls our cold hard fate From this slum we must elevate Rise above and disassociate Isolated from better days The easy ways can't be obtained Held down in these dirty days If my sanity slips it won't be regained I tried my faith and my faith failed The walls get taller than I must scale Born into a life that never ran smooth Nothing we've gained just continued to lose Promises on every single level Inside every sheep always hides a devil Justice is in the grave I never asked for my soul to be saved Proud of what my familys achieved The good and bad still live on in me Politician die, I won't be betrayed I spit on you till my dying day Enslaved by those who think they know But they never ever lived this low Work all our days for our daily bread Just to live when no one cares if we're dead I'm breaking inside but won't let it show If it's death over life Then that's just how it goes
