Trenches
I was born in the trenches
Lived in a war zone
Coming back to my senses
To a place I want to call home
I struggle to look back and reflect
Got to pay those years their respect
Sometimes it's easier to neglect
Sorry for being so direct
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches tonight
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches and fight
Fight, fight the good fight
Rise, rise to the highest heights
The soundtrack of cries and screams
Just put my head down to hide
How they stole all my dreams
Too tough now to go and cry
Still dream up at the stars
Many broken guitars
My head full like memoirs
This journey, it's ours
This journey, it's ours
Lived in Boston, New York, Detroit, and Toronto
Lived in Baltimore, New Jersey, then Chicago
Journey be like 42
Who'm I telling this story to
May not be Japan '04
But this still goes for
Me, don't you see,
He said don't eat from the tree
But I feel no chemistry
Struggled with my identity
Jonah and the whale
Not just a bible tale
It's a story of mine, 2009
Waiting for the stars align
It was the snakes plot
Look at what this pain caused
Trying to escape G-d
The summers down in Cape Cod
Toronto filled me with sfeikus
In that sense, worse than Vegas
But, I will continue to wonder
My faith will grow stronger
They tell me it's just a mood
But I live in attitude
They throw at me platitude
Longer than the latitude
Grander than the gratitude
Take me to the magnitude
I know it's an uphill battle
But I'll fight for what does matter
I know it's a time of war
But skyscrapers don't look that big no more
Oh oh oh oh min ha'meitzar karasi Kah
Oh oh oh anani ba'merchav Kah
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches tonight
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches and fight
Fight, fight the good fight
Rise, rise to the highest heights
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches tonight
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches to the highest heights
Signed, Shloimeh from the trenches
Lived in a war zone
Coming back to my senses
To a place I want to call home
I struggle to look back and reflect
Got to pay those years their respect
Sometimes it's easier to neglect
Sorry for being so direct
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches tonight
Born and bred in the trenches
I was raised in the trenches
So I'll rise from the trenches and fight
Fight, fight the good fight
Rise, rise to the highest heights
The soundtrack of cries and screams
Just put my head down to hide
How they stole all my dreams
Too tough now to go and cry
Still dream up at the stars
