It's like everybody's looking for answers
I don't have 'em
I woke up feeling helpless
The television depresses me
Emotional propaganda represses me
I try to spread love instead but every
Time I look up another body has bled
Another quote is fed
Another death no indictment
The media reacts with excitement
The right wing says poor people are criminals
Natural law these deaths are the residuals
A necessary means to justify the ends
In order to survive you sacrifice some limbs
The system is implied you want to get out alive
You either fall in line or you wind up like them
And this is just the root of a bigger issue that lingers
Conspiracy theorists scream more coffins for FEMA
Worst case you could've shot him in his femur
We all have to answer to time the redeemer
Feels like I've been falling
Falling far away
Feels like no tomorrow
So I hold on today
Feels like I've been falling
Falling far away
Feels like no tomorrow
So I hold on today
I went to sleep feeling restless
The internet depresses me
Instead of actually talking you'd rather message me
I think about having kids and leaving a legacy
We embrace fake and avoid truth like leprosy
We equate faith to attention and seek it desperately
Focus on the symptom instead of the discrepancies
As long as I'm alive and respected
I'll never understand how we're so disconnected
Infected with a plague that instead hounds humility
The dirty little secret we dread accountability
They must account for the countless amount of victims
We must account for the ignorance we depicting
And this is just the root of a dying tree that's poison
You can't just cut you must dig up to avoid it
Runs deeper than bloody sneakers and badges
Violence is a part of our culture utter madness
Feels like I've been falling
Falling far away
Feels like no tomorrow
So I hold on today
Feels like I've been falling
Falling far away
Feels like no tomorrow
So I hold on today
If there's heaven above then there's hell below
Some people are born rich some inherently broke
Some hide behind a mask that they carry to cloak
Too afraid to let their transparency show
If you look past the image that people use to buffer
You'll most likely find a broken soul that suffers
Our only threat is us
When it's set then it's nothing to discuss
I'm talking about race, sex, class, religion
Anything we can to expand our division
No need for repetition yeah you hear but you never really listen
Feels like I've been falling
Falling far away
Feels like no tomorrow
So I hold on today
Feels like I've been falling
Falling far away
Feels like no tomorrow
So I hold on today
