[Hook]
(Sampled From Within Temptation-Hand of Sorrow)
Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear
For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be
Still I'll be the hand that serves you
Though you'll not see that it is me
[Verse 1]
I'm just trying to get through this life, bein' an average guy
Hoping that I could sell these albums and know people who'll buy
Cause truth is I'm in a tough spot in my life, and it feels like I'ma die
I need to get on with these times, but it feels like I'm stuck in the past
They despise everything I stand for, apparently I'm white trash
But I don't want to be poor, or live in these conditions no mo'
Cause look at it this way, I'm not trying to impress anyone or trying to score
Get a damn grip, son, they told me, you're not going to be robbing a store
Oh yeah? Fuck you, this is what I have to do, I'm rotten to the core
But so what? Far as I see the world is fucked in every single pore
I guess that's what we gotta do to get by, the economy is still shit
But they're still urging me to do it, like hell I ain't got true grit
Everything I've done in the past and in the present will define me in the future
So I can't seem to find myself any outlets, jobs, I'm just a junior
What do we live for, what's the purpose of life, is it for us to figure out
Crime neverending, chaos inevitable, is this why we got the trigger out
[Pre-Hook]
I sit at my own table in the cafeteria, always plotting mass hysteria
I'm not going to jail tonight, and that's euphoria
Millions of dollars are just waiting to be mine, screaming my name on the dollar sign
Or are they, who knows, I'm not greedy, I'm easy peasy, I just need to provide for my family
I'm going today to scout out the place, I hope I'm not too phased, I'll find the cheese as the rat in this maze
But I know how to get rich and famous, and it ain't starting in a garbage bin
So I'm going to sleep, tomorrow's the heist, looks like I'm dreaming of sin
[Hook]
Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear
For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be
Still I'll be the hand that serves you
Though you'll not see that it is me
[Verse 2]
Is that it my resurrection or my redemption?
All this life is giving me is no signatures for my complexion
Pale and looking the type, italian boy spitting rhymes for affection
But he keeps on falling down because of failure to write perfection
He can't get back up, but he knows in his heart it'll be enough to kneel
He prays to god for everything he wants, but it'll all about to keel
Injustice, for the times that I left it alone
No one cares, it's all there for us to show
I'm cracking open the safe, but shit, my cover's blown
(Fucking hell, it's the cops!)
Duffel bag can't hold no more, I'm shaking to the bone
I'm gonna die, but it won't be by someone else's groan
C'mon Razor, better end it right now, you're here all alone
Fuck this game, she's a bitch, you can call her Joan
The arc witch I wrote a letter and still forgot to burn
Pull the trigger, man, your vigor's already been shown
Footsteps are coming, I'm fucked and popping my phone
Let's see how my brain handles 954 mph in the unknown
[Pre-Hook]
I sat at my own table in the cafeteria, was always plotting mass hysteria
I'm going to get buried next week by my family, and that's euphoria
My dreams are crushed but I'm fine, no evidence's left and my homie's lying
Or are they, who knows, I'm not greedy, I'm easy peasy, I just needed to provide for my baby
I've gone and found out my place, I hope I'm not too played, I found the cheese as the rat in this maze
But I knew how to get rich and famous, and it wasn't starting in a garbage bin
I went to sleep tonight, it was by my own hand, I died still dreaming of sin
[Hook]
Please forgive me for the sorrow, for leaving you in fear
For the dreams we had to silence, that's all they'll ever be
Still I'll be the hand that serves you
Though you'll not see that it is me
(Outro:)
Yeah...don't ever let anyone tell you that there's no dreams...
Because there always are dreamers...
And just like John Lennon said, I'm not the only one...
Stay in school...don't get shot...and always dream...
Just sayin'...
