a strife of tongues about the things that you want
but you forget about what it takes to set sail on a sinking ship
doing things the hard way
I dare you to walk a mile in my shoes, going in for the kill
but instead you prey on every chance to leech
that’s how it’s always been
how it’s always been
separate facts from fiction
abstract the lies from the truth
vultures in disguise
I see you lurking to benefit from other’s gains
but true individual dignity only gets reached by doing things yourself
