The sound of noises telling you what you want to hear.
It's so hard to think with all them chinese whispers in your ear.
Finger on trigger just to get the message clear.
Just trying to be me ain't that the reason to why we're here.
Back in the day we used to work hard every nine to five.
You got to do what you got to do just to stay alive.
These days I gonna sit down here 'cause there ain't no use in trying.
Trying to say you don't know that you can-do maybe you just lying.
Did you mother ever tell you nobody else that can maybe have it but you.
And you never say,
Everything will always be alright,
if you only just make me proud,
then I'll be happy you can, take, me, down ... tonight.
They say when you got nothing then you got nothing to lose.
It's easy to think like that when we are 'cause of what we chose.
Good fortune come my way but I'm tired of feeling blue.
I don't want excuse man when it's time to get up and move.
Back in the day used to work hard every nine to five.
You got to do what you got to do just to stay alive.
These days I gonna sit down here 'cause there ain't no use in trying.
Trying to say you don't know that you can-do maybe you just lying.
Did you mother ever tell you nobody else, that can maybe have it but you.
And you never say,
Everything will always be alright,
if you only just make me proud,
then I'll be happy you can, take, me, down ... tonight.
I'm a thousand miles away, calling your game, calling your game.
Maybe till broken change, nobody can, nobody can.
When all of your cards are down, there's no-one to help you, no-one to blame.
In the eyes of defeat, gonna rise to your feet, because you're on your own.
Did you mother ever tell you nobody else that can maybe have it but you.
And you never say,
Everything will always be alright,
If you only just make me proud,
Then I'll be happy you can, take, me, down
