What We Were
Nobody really cares
Nobody really cares
(No they don't)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck em)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck you all)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck em)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck you all)
If you care about the words
Listen to what I gotta say throughout every verse
Everybody fronting I'm talking about my curse
A life dignified by death what could be worse?
I love my Mother Earth
But sometimes I wish I could just get up outta this urn
As long as you all living you watching the world burn
Please god, take me to a place and show me what we were
GO
(GO)
Whats wrong?
(Whats wrong)
I thought this what you wanted
(What you wanted)
Take it back
(Take it back)
To what we were
(To what we were)
What was I to I?
What were you to you?
Not the life we choose
But we all have to make due
With every scar and bruise
What we were
What we deserved
What we all learned
What we tried to preserve
Release me from the urn
I know it ain't your concern
But as long as we all living we watching the world burn
Watch them ashes go round
Now we all falling down
Nursery rhymes telling us to go seek out solid ground
See the sound that's released when a baby momma's spirit drown
Change the fucking channel and say I don't wanna hear it now
We were what?
Savage but just
What were we?
Lonly it seems
Were we lovers?
Were we friends?
Were we brothers?
How it end?
Did we leave it on a sour note or did we make a mends?
Can we converse?
Bout universe?
Do we return?
What we tried to preserve?
Release me from the urn
I know it ain't your concern
But as long as we all living we watching the world burn
Put the film up in the projector
I wanna see it
I need to see proof that I was in-fact once
A human being
They strap me down to the chair and dope me up before the
Screening
Everybody's laughing at my life while I'm kicking and screaming
Will you join me for this beautiful ride
And I'm gonna take my time
Got the bottle of rye
Directly by my side
They said no child is left behind
That's a fucking lie
Cuz I'm product of tragedy and unearthly design
And I'm gon' fly
Past the pastures of bastards that don't shine
Up to the sky
Where the truth behind all of our lives reside
And I'm so high
Playing beer pong with them fox news satellites
Now I'm floating outta sight
Dip my toes into the night
From enfants to children then children turn into teens
Innocence turns into greed
Conditions germinate seeds
In chains within our minds but we consider it free
Give you my two cents but penny outta circulation see
If I strapped you down to that fucking chair would you watch it?
Would you take the dope to sooth make it seem less toxic?
Would you beg and plead for me to take the tape out and stop it?
Are you intrigued by what we were?
Maybe I'll start talking
Memories are stacking like them Playstation 2 memory cards
Or like the sticks we used as swords, we had up in the yard
I wish that same type of innocence lasted straight from the start
Look aimless in the mirror cuz we ashamed of who we are
A chain of events, situations, created circumstance
In turn complacency turns human race into contraband
Hindsights twenty-twenty, something I want you to understand
Review what you were, take who you are in your own hands
What was I to I?
What were you to you?
You don't know about the shit that we used to do
Pick at the scabs and stitches for something unforgiven
Find our pinochle but is it worth re-living?
Life's a bitch but beautiful something worth pursuing though
The day after my...
You'll be crushed but you'll get through it though
Review the tapes maybe you'll shed a couple tears
My memory will fade away as months turn to years...
Nobody really cares
(No they don't)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck em)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck you all)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
(Fuck em)
Nobody really cares
(Not a single one)
Nobody really cares
