Locksmith - Fallen lyrics
[Locksmith - Fallen lyrics]
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 is bled
Another quota is feed
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 that justify the ends
In order to survive we sacrificing limbs
The system is implied
You wanna 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
Worse 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 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 fate to attention
And seek it desperately
Focus on the sythem instead
Of the discrepancies
As long as I'm alive and respected
I never understand how we're so disconnected
Infected with a plague that
Instead hounds humility
The dirty little secret we
Dread and count ability
They must account for the
Countless amount of victims
We must account for the
Ignorance we depicting
And this is just a root of
A dying tree that is poisoned
You can't just cut you must
Dig up to avoid it
Runs deeper than bloody sneakers and badges
Violence is 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 a cloak
Too afraid to let their transparencies show
If you look past the image
That people use to buffer
You most likely find a
Broken soul that suffers
Our only threat is us
When it's said then there'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 here 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
