Scarcity

I got a phone full of songs I've written
But no cash to record them
A garage sale of doubts in my head
That I'll move out of storage
I got a dream of tomorrow's regrets
When I wake up each morning
An envious disposition
That I'm trying to forfeit

O scarcity
You try to make me think
That there won't be enough
Enough for them and me
O scarcity
You're lying through your teeth
The overflowing cup
Beckons to come and drink

Are You only your brother's keeper
If it serves your advantage?
Using every dangerous word
Like you're some kind of savage
Try to tell ourselves what we deserve
Like it's something we manage
Turning profits for greater return
And pretend there's no damage

O scarcity
You try to make me think
That there won't be enough
Enough for them and me
O scarcity
You're lying through your teeth
The overflowing cup
Beckons to come and drink

O scarcity
Your fear's what makes us bleed
Maybe there'd be enough
In generosity
O scarcity
You're lying through your teeth
The overflowing cup
Beckons to come and drink
The overflowing cup
Beckons to come and drink
