They sell the dream
You can’t afford
They front the difference
Trade your life for labor just to pay the interest
And your part
In this life we live and love so dark
And shit gets hard
Those shiny things
Gone fall apart
Those mighty wings
Only go so far
And them words they never stood behind
Done broke your heart
Don’t let those things
Put out your spark
You got this far
You fought this war
You got those scars
To prove you are
————————
The one they’ll watch
And wish they were
They’ll never be
They’ll never leave
I let it breathe
It went straight for the neck
And bit the hand that feeds it
Best believe your best of friends will eat you
——
When it comes down to eatin
La - da - da - da
Like who’d a thought
It be your people
[chorus]
I I’m a keep on keeping on
That dust kicked up behind me
———yea yea yea yea
The weak gone sleep
the strong survive
dreams been dead
No don’t remind me
they gone look
La-la-la-la-Dee-da-dee-dum-dee-dum-dee-dadaa
Hope they never find me
[verse]
They never look
Not till they need you
Then it comes like
Where you been boy
How come we don’t never see you
Just look at them
Empty and evil
They’ll come
Take what they can and leave you
No life left in those eyes
That Bible lies
Da-da-dee-da
those lies will teach you
Da-Da-dee-dum-dee-dum-dee-da-da
Best Ditch the Pride
Forget what drives you through the fight
It’s what still haunts you through night
This ain’t what mom said makes it right
I watched her stay the rock she was for my whole life
My father fell his knees were weak I saw him crawl he never stopped I never saw my father cry
He never did
He took the hits
He never quit
And that’s why i keep swinging em
Right and left
I’ll take all ten a them - by myself
I let them in again
Lines been dry
I Cry for help
And no one ever did
La-la-Lines been dry as hell
—
My demons like
when I’m with them
Down there it’s where
we do the dirt
And that fruit I trade my labor for
——
I never see
I do the work
I never eat
I need the rest I never sleep
I never stress
The change I let em keep
I tell myself
It ain’t that deep
I pound my chest
And make them see
I won’t get left here with my demons
Dreams are cheap And made for chasing
You’ll never reach that peace you’re cravin
Dead or sleep
It’s all the same thing
[chorus]
I’m a keep on keeping on
That dust kicked up behind me
———yea yea yea yea
The weak gone sleep
the strong survive
dreams been dead
No don’t remind me
they gone look
La-la-la-la-Dee-da-dee-dum-dee-dum-dee-dadaa
Hope they never find me
