upper hand
Throw your burdens and leave them outside my door
i don't want to listen to your woe's no-more
Come in smiling a positive attitude
i'm listening all sounds good.
Cross the yard all is a riot
in the other neabourhood all is quiet
money makes the rich mans, heart grow cold
all godliness has now been sold.
Into the wilderness finding peace
sleep in rows with the deceased.
Throw a curtain over society's eyes
this wealthy man doe's not tell lies
blinding them from your world at will
for you when you speak the world stands still.
The sea of an ocean covers a mass of land
like the rich over the poor have the upper hand
they make the rules we all have to abide
if you make mistakes well there all denied
all is lost in the whirlpool of life
thrown down from above me, trouble and strife.
Back to my curtains which i have closed
in a house within land i have borrowed
only for a short time it will belong to me
stepping out of people's reality.
Rise and be greeted with lollies
in every taste you can imagine
shopping with a full trolley
the maddness is about to begin
Fear is not complete without confrontation
can't do nothing about it complete frustration
Locked in a world where all dreams are made real
not in your instinct to know what others feel.
No one can teach you the rules
they haven't been written yet
the only one's who think they have it right
are the one's who are likely to be in debt.
Gambling through stacked cards, into oblivion
when they put the last card down they think they have won.
Is no one listening, does everything fall on deaf ears
am i the only one listening in here
why the complaints or your teary eye's
to me your a losing man that's no suprise
you can't go on believing that you will win
ignorance will not continue to bury your sin.
Rise above and beyond whether you are here or over the pond
face it deface it all is at your command
man was given the upper hand.
