Mordred

In This Life

Mordred


The faces of the figureheads 
Are there to fear them but 
The money bells are ringing 
For those who hear them and 
The seeds of your future 
Await for you to sow them and 
The sound of your voices 
Will ultimately show them all 
The ways you will matter and 
Perpetuate society 
The days you will shatter to 
Bring you notoriety 
The rules you'll be breaking will be rules for fools and 
The pains you'll be taking will be your tools and 

Make your own way 
In this life 
Have to find a way to rise above 
The pain and strife 
Make your own way 
In this life 
Have to find a way to rise above 
The pain and strife 

Piles of bodies and bodies 
We see them and 
Some that didn't make it 
Didn't choose to be them cause 
It's hard to make a mark 
With a plague of illiteracy 
But sitting on our asses is a 
Form of complacency that 
We can't sit by and tolerate 
We have problems to eleviate 
Bad education and suppression 
The homeless in the street 
Are a few of the nightmares that we should 
Wake up and greet to 

Make your own way 
In this life 
Have to find a way to rise above 
The pain and strife 
Make your own way 
In this life 
Have to find a way to rise above 
The pain and strife 

In this life, and there's only 
One of them 
There's a means to an end but 
Unfortunately some of them 
Destroy the things that we need 
Like the creatures in the water and the air we breathe and 
Then we wonder whose fault it all was 
Well maybe not yours but that's not it cause 
We take for granted the things that make our life complete 
So open wide your eyes and 
Get the fuck out on the streets 

Make your own way 
In this life 
Have to find a way to rise above 
The pain and strife 
Make your own way 
In this life 
Have to find a way to rise above 
The pain and strife
