Our Own Sake
Found myself at the bottom of a bottle
Try to drown away my sorrows
Pray the lord my soul to take
Our lives shut down, people find themselves in trouble
Oh But the man in the oval
Tells us it's for our own sake
Now tell me why
50 Years of lies
Could ever lead to change this time
I'm getting sick and tired their crimes
They've Hung us out to dry
And Don't you ever forget
what they took from you
And don't you ever forget
How they lied to you
And don't you ever forget
What they put us through
And don't you ever forget
No I won't
They promised us health and prosperity
They promised us wealth and equality
But take a look around what do you see
Wasted lives and wasted wars
Wasted mine and wasted yours
Our world is torn
Now Tell me how a man on borrowed time
Could ever save a nation that's dying
I'm getting sick and tired of their lies
Just them know that I
I won't ever forget
What they took from you
And I won't ever forget
What they put us through
And I won't ever forget
How they lied to you
And I won't ever forget
No I won't
And Don't you ever forget
What they took from you
And Don't you ever forget
How they lied to you
Found myself at the bottom of a bottle
Woahhhh
Try to drown away my sorrows
Pray the lord my soul to take
Our lives shut down, people find themselves in trouble
Oh But the man in the oval
Tells us it's for our own sake
Now tell me why
50 Years of lies
Could ever lead to change this time
I'm getting sick and tired their crimes
They've Hung us out to dry
And Don't you ever forget
what they took from you
And don't you ever forget
How they lied to you
And don't you ever forget
What they put us through
And don't you ever forget
No I won't
They promised us health and prosperity
They promised us wealth and equality
But take a look around what do you see
Wasted lives and wasted wars
Wasted mine and wasted yours
Our world is torn
Now Tell me how a man on borrowed time
Could ever save a nation that's dying
I'm getting sick and tired of their lies
Just them know that I
I won't ever forget
What they took from you
And I won't ever forget
What they put us through
And I won't ever forget
How they lied to you
And I won't ever forget
No I won't
And Don't you ever forget
What they took from you
And Don't you ever forget
How they lied to you
Found myself at the bottom of a bottle
Woahhhh
