Pools are Perfect for Holding Water

Trapped in an hourglass
With time slipping through my hands
How can I breath, no oxygen
Free to live but money is the key
What do we have when we are not "wealthy"?
(Yeah)

I can't believe what I can't see
This world does nothing but deceive
There's proof in our existence
They had their maps to guide the way
And books to relive history
So how can we move forward?

We act as if as there's nothing we can do
It's right inside
When the answer lives right inside of you
You never took the time to open up your mind
It might be time to change our ways
Or these might be your final days
What have we become?

This world wants nothing more
Than to see me on my knees
So why not stand up tall?
Taller than the fucking trees

We act as if as there's nothing we can do
It's right inside
When the answer lives right inside of you
You never took the time to open up your mind
It might be time to change our ways
Or these might be your final days
What have we become?

Wounds are made so we all can know pain
Scars form so that you'll never forget
All the shit we've been through in our lives
We won't let it happen twice, that's how we survive

This is the road we've paved
All the blood, sweat, and tears
That stroll down our faces
These are the walls we've built
Keeping us in our place
Stalling like sheep, wandering meat
Led to the slaughterhouse

There is more that can be done
But that involves everyone
Hand and hand we'll rise up
Take today by storm
There is more that can be done
But that involves everyone
Hand and hand we'll rise up
Take today by storm
