This Mad Land by BFUMEZ Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2015

[Verse 1]
Am I the only one sick of seeing the smoke billow out the factory
I'm angry, slashing at the pillow they given us so the masses sleep soundly
How can I be happy, when every time I'm looking out the window all I see is the same shit
Another murder in the headlines its spread across the papers
Never any positivity, contained within the pages
Bulk profits and false promises kids slashing with razors
Cause every time they look inside their mothers eyes
They're reminded why dad had to leave, yeah duty to a flag
Dead because this nations debating another mans belief its sad to see
And I've had it with pretending it ain't affecting me
They preach peace but at times of war it vanishes from memory
In the age of the psychopath there ain't no room for empathy when death is a multi-billion dollar business
Built on the plot to put you inside the cemetery
Yet every body blind to those of us left behind
Picking up the pieces why would I wanna dream
I'm just wishing i could sleep at night, when so many of my hours gone
Was busy listing so many problems but I lost count
When I thought about how shits changed since the towers dropped
And how many still suffering cause they scared of judging em
When they listen to the mouth of god, man they got it wrong
So concerned for where the border lies they forgot this shit was all a lie
A bunch of scribbles on a colored map
And this isnt even wisdom I've known it since grade one
So what the fuck is that, I'll tell you what it is man its fucking sad
And this isn't an opinion I'm just giving you the facts
And I hope, that maybe one day they start thinking
But they lost to the chaos, everyone wanna talk but nobody wanna listen
We're all inside the cage, together we're the victims of yesterdays decisions
[Chorus]
And shits got me tripping like what if it was different
Yeah shits got me tripping like what if it was different
Something wrong with the picture its lost in my eyes
How can it get better when so many die
Truth be your own man but I ain't gonna lie
But we gotta stick together take it one step at a time
Take it one step at a time
We gotta stick together take it one step at a time
One step at a time we gotta take it
We gotta take it one step at a time its like

[Verse 2]
Can barely move and these heavy shoes remember you
Was telling me I'd never loose whenever I am sent to shoot
Sex and booze is all i ever tend to do I'm guessing
All these faeries ain't no friends to me they're enemies that stretch the truth
Depressing moods are never ending sentenced in this desert room
Twenty seconds left until I exit dead my neck a noose
Every day I check the news another death I jealous you
Another brother that consumed, swallowed by the meth abuse
Know that i am there for yous, honest answer yes its true
You hover high like air balloons I roll your eyes I'm scared for you
Another brother stolen from the golden pride you dead and swooped
Cold as ice but I am sweating orange fire red and blue
Told you twice you never woo the army knife I never knew
Still you go ahead and charge me find it quite unfair to you
My mind feels kind of empty truly find that I am left no clue
Like rubix cubes inside the palms of colorblind and confused
[Chorus]
Something wrong with the picture its lost in my eyes
How can it get better when so many die
Truth be your own man but I ain't gonna lie
But we gotta stick together take it one step at a time
Take it one step at a time
Yeah we gotta stick together take it one step at a time
What
