just another way to justify
|
i don't understand how we reach our conclusions
|
just another way to justify
|
that's not the way to make it
|
|
we sat and talked all day
|
not just thoughts but ways
|
i couldn't find a single word you had to say
|
like minds so hard to come by
|
you broke away
|
(even though it was) easier to stay
|
but you knew, you know it weren't about a gun in your face
|
now fewer in numbers but united by something real
|
|
true strength of mind
|
divided you from the just out for themselves
|
cos you broke away
|
but you knew, you know it aint about this time or this place
|
and self importance had almost destroyed what you had achieved
|
i know it was hard
|
but you just had to break free
|
does it always have to be
|
that greed builds our dreams and seems
|
to be the drive behind so many human beings
|
it's so sad that we've had
|
so much potential, many chances
|
so much good we've turned to bad
|
|
well walk away
|
live your own way
|
but that's not that much good to those who really
|
have no choice but to stay
|
is it so different?
|
illusion or something real?
|
is this really how you feel?
|
|
i'm sick and tired of the
|
wasted time and the
|
twisted minds who wanna strip us of a decent chance
|
cos they pollute with their
|
desire for loot and their
|
drug disputes
|
spouting fucking lame demands
|
well they ain't gonna waste my time
|
don't wanna adopt that state of mind
|
|
cos what are they thinking of?
|
it ain't "staying true"
|
it's all about what they gain
|
and their rude boy attitudes
|
well that ain't what we're thinking of
|
we're "staying true"
|
and you ain't gonna bring us down
|
and we ain't gonna stand by you
