As I take a look around
I can see so much beauty
Surrounding me
Piercing through me
And I just can't bear it
This designed exclusiveness
The world has so much to offer
And you're only willing to share so little
Of what belongs to all of us
We don't want the same
Why do you pretend
That clenching a fist
Equates an open hand?
Do you think we'll wait until
We're allowed to speak?
I guess your greatest weakness is
Mistaking us for weak
I'm watching another sunrise
Taking a breath
But I can't sigh with relief
Since I know
You're trying everything in your power
To have us pay for this view
And please spare me your prose
It's dishonest and it's wasted
I'm not listening anymore
Since I truly believe
I'll find more honesty and kindness
At the bottom of every ashtray in this town
We don't want the same
Why do you pretend
That clenching a fist
Equates an open hand?
Do you think we'll wait until
We're allowed to speak?
I guess your greatest weakness is
Mistaking us for weak
We don't want the same
Why do you pretend
That reaching for cash
Equates a helping hand?
Do you think we'll wait until
We're allowed to speak?
I guess your greatest weakness is
Mistaking us for weak
