Forthwrite - It Wasn't For This lyrics

Ground up!

It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world
It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world

It's always been this way
Since the first beginnin' of time
'Cause we're all livin' to the
Rhythm of the tickets supplied
So inside, from age ten
I was scared by the threat of endin'
Just another nothing so instead of spendin'
All day in my mind, tryna fly away
I became more inclined to fight and
Trying to find a way to change it
Still I wonder if I'll ever listen
When television is tellin'
Women irrelevant things
All just to make a buck
Like you can make yourself
Happy if you just pay enough
So they keep makin' up
All this new shit you need to buy
It's the same old shit with
Just a different reason why
Why do we always let 'em push
Us till we back down?
That's how we ended up stuck
Here in the background
In the first place, let my verse play
Take a closer look
At what the words say and write back
It's like that

It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world
It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world

Yo, has it always been this way? Man
The problem is this
Believin' people who don't know
What honesty is
We're full of fear, always watchin' a risk
And if it does
Then I'm hopin' that it wasn't for this
And I don't believe the stories that
They sell on the news these days
You're never knowin' who is telling the truth
A bunch of liars in irrelevant suit's
They get paid to tell the story
And they sell it to you it's a needle
Injected in the minds of the people
They have the rights to decide who is equal
It's evil, living fools in a dumb world
Just look at what's considered cool
To these young girls
How many people will accept being undermined?
How many people really say that
They love their life?
How many people will fight
For a fuckin' right?
Most of all you shrug it off saying
"such is life" now take a stand
Take a stand

It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world
It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world
It wasn't for this, it wasn't for that
Oh, best believe a better world
