PRIVILEGED LIFE

This life feels like it has maid wrong turn to our destination
Thinking the next turn will be our real liberation
No one thinking they just blindly listening
Responsibility is placed on the victim, for that there is no forgiving

Privileged life
Threaten by other people enjoying life
As they cut barbecue with a knife

A closed mind is closed to the diversity of life
It is a threat to the boredom of uncultured traditions
Pride in hate does not make anyone great

Privileged life
Threaten by historical truths who really owned whom
When true love was found jumping over the broom

What is marriage the beginning to everlasting romance
Or a contract where you only get half as the lawyers laugh
Unconditional love should be the goal of everyone

Privileged life
When there is proof you are wrong
But you lie with the same old song

Stick a needle in your eye there no way to explain your lie
Step on a crack to break your mother's back (is that what Sarah's children try to do?)
With no job you lost all your pride all you got is time

BLIND LIE

How high can you get before you look down and fall
Why do you hide when you claim you have it all
The truth may hurt but when you say it, it will not burn

Blind lie
You got the shovel you know how deep you can go
Blind lie
You got the rope the more you get you will still not touch the floor

Why do you lie?
Because it makes your ego sweet as pie
Why do you lie?
Because you want to see someone die

Blind lie
What is in it for you something shiny and new
Blind lie
You want to impress everyone are you having fun

Everyone is counting your lying words
When called out on your lack of facts
In  your mind, you start to squirm
You play the victim as you follow this path
