The World Goes Blind
An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
I said An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
The world spins round and round
Society failing we tearing each other down
It's like god ain't around no more we opening the door
For the devil to come in and hand us a medal
For all the crimes we committed
Against ourselves
It's like love's sold out
No more on the shelf discontinued
Now greed is on the menu
I might not be able to but it can sell out stadiums and venues
If I could exchange some of my loose change for some change
That would be out of my price range
I'm trying to loosen these chains
Tying our society to moral insobriety
Before we entirely drown
With a frown on our faces
Because we spent our lives running rat races
Scared to fail but what doesn't break us makes us
Praying to god don't take us yet
Cause I'd rather die trying than be buried with regrets
An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
I said An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
They teach us about the good not the bad
How am I supposed to feel happy when I've never felt sad
Don't cry you're a guy and that's just wrong
If you've never felt weak you can never feel strong
Listen
I'll give you a little piece of advice
Life's not gonna slow down for you go with it or pay the price
If you're ungrateful now later you'll feel nothing can suffice
When you're old you'll look back realize it flashed before your eyes
You gotta be prepared
Set yourself a goal
Be a man change your font underline it and be bold
If you believe it you can do it that's what I been told
Now you know why you're finding dirt while digging for gold
An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
I said An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
Jesus said you should turn the other cheek
But how do you give up your pride
The feeling you feel inside
When you turn the other side
Blown harder now your shame is twice the size
And your tongue's tied (Tongue tied)
You hold a grudge but what is that for
You say eye for an eye you open the dresser drawer
Pull out a nine step out the front door
Shoot him in the spine now he's paralyzed
Will he survive, you wish he dies
But the cops arrive and now you realize
What you've done
You can't run or hide
You throw out your gun
Now all you are is a man on the run
All you are is a man on the run
All for an eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
I said An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
I said An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
I said An eye for an eye and the world goes blind
A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
The world spins round and round
Society failing we tearing each other down
It's like god ain't around no more we opening the door
For the devil to come in and hand us a medal
For all the crimes we committed
Against ourselves
It's like love's sold out
No more on the shelf discontinued

A tooth for a tooth till we can't pronounce the truth
