The Ghost Inside - Southtown [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Welcome to hard times
Back again like it's never been, for the first time
It seems to mess with my head
So when I realize what it takes, can I relate?
With whatever, but never will it drive me to hate

Could I be the next guy
That you take before I wake?
Now I lay me down to sleep, eyes tight when I pray
This here is real life
Circumstances make you think
Should i be counting my blessings
The next second my eyes blink

You're in the southtown, you know that kid don't play
Put it down on the streets, will I see another day?
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank god that I made it alive

You're in the southtown, you know that kid don't play
Put it down on the streets, will I see another day?
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank god that I made it alive

One love it's easier said than done
Can I rise above anything that gets in my way?
Like words you say, you let your tongue get loose
And when push comes to shove, I'm not used to walking away

I keep on looking up, cause these times are getting tough
Tomorrow's gone and its the same old song
Father fill my cup, give me strength to power up
A life to shine, you're the diamond in this rough

You're in the southtown, you know that kid don't play
Put it down on the streets, will I see another day?
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank god that I made it alive

You're in the southtown, you know that kid don't play
Put it down on the streets, will I see another day?
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank god that I made it alive

Make us pay, make us pay
Make us pay, make us pay

Welcome to southtown, you know that kid don't play
Put it down on the streets, will I see another day?
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank god that I made it alive

You're in the southtown, you know that kid don't play
Put it down on the streets, will I see another day?
If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine
And thank god that I made it alive

You're in the southtown
