Three Card Monte

Vagrants
Kind enough to give you the time of day
Enslaved to a world that feinds create
Like a snake in the grass
Rip you off slip through the cracks

This is not the end of the debate
Wish that hell lies not in future days
Simple minds can not be changed
Step by step
Methodically led astray
The snatch and grab seem to proclaim
But johnny law knows this authentic type of game

Fear is where you go to learn and sometimes where you stay
Pay what you owe or suffer
Leave your family slain
Slain, deranged, estranged
Mentally stripped and raped

I want it now
Everything you got
So be prepared to stick 'em or be left down and out
That skittering sound leaves a trail of everything i'll ever amount

Dead faces surround me
Push pulling every part of me
It seems that we can fix who we are
But only right from the start
Right from the start
Evidently lost and torn apart
A look through the peephole
A glimmer of light
An unreachable feast with no chance of pure life
A division of class since the begining of time
