The GC5 - Turn Their Backs lyrics
I got my education in the ivory halls Found the pulse of the nation in truck stop toilet stalls And we're running out of time because we're running out of patience So visit our sins on future generations You can speak or have a conscience but you know it doesn't pay They'll keep you at the margins and they'll shut you away I've been looking up and down and searchin' round these parts for hope Is like finding your footing on a slippery slope It's all that I can do just to make it And say the emperors around us are all naked It's all that I can do just to make it through And fight against their tendency to turn their backs on you They envy you because you're young, it's what they wanna be But kid beware of hucksters who'll sell you slavery They'll package inspiration like a product on a shelf Killing any inclination to find it for yourself See them try to forge a new consensus After all these years of bludgeoning your senses Day after day they say "Would you have it any other way?" And give a deep sleep of a smile at your reply |
