How Come

I wanted to say it's how it always was
We looked at the planes
As they come from above
I still remember the city halls
I'm really not that far from it all

It starts like a habit and turns into a frame
I'll never really leave if I never kill the shame
I guess I took the hand that dealt the cards
But I never felt I took what's rightfully ours

So I said, how come you don't
Have all these fingers
Who make you sure you won't leave?
And I said, how come you don't
Have all these faces that will
Hate what you see?
I can't escape what's from me

I'm thinking where I've been born
Is always stuck to me

And I said, how come you don't
Have all these fingers
Who make you sure you won't leave?
And I said, how come you don't
Have all these faces
That will hate what you see?
I can't escape what's from me

How come?
How come?
How come?
How come?
How come?
How?

So I said, how come you don't
Have all these fingers
Who make you sure you don't leave?
Yeah, who will kill all your dreams?
And I said, how come you don't
Have all these faces
That will hate what you see?
I guess they're all under me
And I said, how come you don't
Have all these fingers
who make you sure you don't leave?
I guess you're stronger than me
And I said, how come you don't
Have all these faces
That will hate what you see?
I can't escape what's from me
So I said
