Hey You
Hey you before you walk away
I said you got nothing to fear
Just stop think how many of me you've passed right by this year
And if you knew me better you would know that I didn't want the strife
But now I'm out here like an animal fighting for my life
See you're just like me
You're one step from my place
When you fall down hard and they spit right in your face
Hey you I used to be like you
I said I used to be clean
I used to eat my food at a table instead of on the street
And I had a place, a place to lay my head
Go to sleep at night
Just cause I'm down here and you're up there
Just don't make it right
See you're just like me
You're one step from my place
When you fall down hard and they spit right in your face
See this game's not made for us
It's made for liars
Now let's burn it down and hold them to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
Hey you before you walk away
I said you can't look me in the eye
Gotta work so hard for all the things they tell you to buy
But I don't want your pity
You should know it means nothing to me
We gotta change this game, change this game so we can both be free
See you're just like me
You're one step from my place
When you fall down hard and they spit right in your face
See this game's not made for us
It's made for liars
Now let's burn it down and hold them to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
I said you got nothing to fear
Just stop think how many of me you've passed right by this year
And if you knew me better you would know that I didn't want the strife
But now I'm out here like an animal fighting for my life
See you're just like me
You're one step from my place
When you fall down hard and they spit right in your face
Hey you I used to be like you
I said I used to be clean
I used to eat my food at a table instead of on the street
And I had a place, a place to lay my head
Go to sleep at night
Just cause I'm down here and you're up there
Just don't make it right
See you're just like me
You're one step from my place
When you fall down hard and they spit right in your face
See this game's not made for us
It's made for liars
Now let's burn it down and hold them to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
Hey you before you walk away
I said you can't look me in the eye
Gotta work so hard for all the things they tell you to buy
But I don't want your pity
You should know it means nothing to me
We gotta change this game, change this game so we can both be free
See you're just like me
You're one step from my place
When you fall down hard and they spit right in your face
See this game's not made for us
It's made for liars
Now let's burn it down and hold them to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
I'll hold em to the fire
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
