[Verse 1]
We fight for the sake of a future not ours
See we work 40 hours
Just to line every pocket as
Paper mean power that will never grow sour
So we think
But this lands made from honey and milk
Built with silk from the sinew of our
Will to continue to
Bleed for this land so make peace with that hand
That built shit, for your dreams you saved up for
Til you done for
So matter
To self, not to wealth
For the labor of love’s really worth it
We’re perfectly flawed
In awe of destruction we aimlessly cause
And wonder to pause when there’s someone in need now
Plant that seed and concede that we’re built on regret and
Forget them limitation society has set
For your mind id that step a road less traveled
Like the tower of babel we rise as we fall so
[Chorus]
We rise as we fall
We die as we crawl
We give it our all
We rise as we fall
We die as we crawl
We give it our all
We rise as we fall
We die as we crawl
We give it our all
We rise as we fall
We die as we crawl
We give it our all
We rise as we fall
We die as we crawl
We give it our all
[Outro:]
The sky & ocean
Brother and sister
Meet at the horizon to speak about why people pout
When such a place they before them
A land forsaken by the many who forget its name
Who spread blame with hot knifes over oil slicks and human shit
Fed to our indentured orange jumpsuits with numbers for names
You see they were people before the system failed them
And raised your profit margin
Like the n***a jargon you cop for them likes
You see
The sky and ocean
Brother and sister
Meet at the horizon to speak about why people pout
When the water runs clean and they dream about bullshit
Not if they can make it through the night alright
You see the sky and ocean
Brother and sister
Meet at the horizon to speak about why people pout
When such a place they before them
When such a place they before us
