Two Sides Same Coin

There's people sleeping in the street
But you won't lend a hand
Them begging for a bite to eat
Plays right into your plan
Keep praying that society
Keeps preying on itself
So you don't have to do a thing to help

Would I believe them if not for this?
The only place where I've found my peace
Not their religion - a bunch of shit
About helping others to help your self
Self-serving kindness - that's not for me
Because blind faith's still blindness
And I choose to see
The truth in this world around me

There's people sleeping in the park
You say they owe a debt
You see them standing in the dark
So they must pose a threat
Society keeps telling me that everything's a bet
A fifty-fifty gamble I end up dead

Would I believe them if not for this?
The only place where I've found my peace
Not their position - when they insist
On hurting others to help your self
Self-serving violence - that's not for me
Because blind hate's still blindness
And I choose to see
There's gotta be more inside of me

Both for power - both for pride
Just the other side of the same coin
What if I told you one's on the inside?
Just the other side of the same coin
I've got a feeling you'd be surprised
Just the other side of the same coin
Are they the ones that you idolize?
Two sides same coin
