DAY IN DAY OUT
SAME OLD SONG AND DANCE
SAME SHIT DIFFERENT DAY
AND HIS WIFE WEARS THE PANTS
DISGRUNTLED
WITH A PICTURE OF HIS KIDS
AND A GUN HELD TO HIS HEAD

THAT IS SOON TO BECOME DEAD
AND AT THE END OF THE NOTE
IT SAYS YOU KNOW MY TIME HAS COME
I DONT WANT THIS ANYMORE
AND I FEEL MY LIFE IS DONE
LIFE IS DONE

WITH A PROMISE AND A PRAYER
AND SPARKLE IN HER EYE
SHE GOES TO WORK EVERYDAY

AND AT THE END OF THE WEEK
WITHOUT A DOLLAR TO HER NAME
SHE GETS READY FOR THE NEXT
TO GET UP AND DO THE SAME
DO THE SAME
DISGRUNTLED

THROW ALL YOUR PRIDE ALONG THE WAYSIDE

RE - RE - REFLECTION
THROW ALL YOUR HATE OUT THE WINDOW
FORGET YOUR PAIN AND THEN JUST LET IT FLOW

SHAPING THEIR OPINION OF WHAT THEIR MORALS SHOULD BE

NO HOPE-NO TRUST NO GUIDANCE AT ALL
YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT HER KIDS JUST SAW
NO HOPE-NO TRUST NO GUIDANCE FROM THEM
MOMMYS IN BED WITH DADDYS BEST FRIEND------ITS DYSFUNCTIONAL

LOCK EM UP QUICK AND SEND EM AWAY
BUT IT NEVER SEEMS TO WORK OUT LIKE THAT YOU SEE
SMACK EM ON THE WRIST AND SET EM FREE

NO HOPE-NO TRUST NO GUIDANCE AT ALL
SANDPAPER JUSTICE RUBS ME RAW
NO HOPE-NO TRUST NO GUIDANCE FROM THEM
SAY THE RIGHT THINGS AND THE LAWS GET BENT------ITS DYSFUNCTIONAL

CANT YOU SEE THE STATE WERE IN TODAY
LIVING LIFE IN TOTAL DISARRAY
NO ONE SEEMS TO HAVE THE ANSWERS FOR
LOVE THAT GETS TREATED LIKE A WHORE
---ONE SHOT AT GLORY---MOTHER FUCKER

THE CRIME RATES UP AND THE INNOCENT DIE
WHO IN THE FUCK IS THE SYSTEM FOR?
IF LADY JUSTICE WAS REAL

14. Sands Of Time

[ T.J. BERRY ]

WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD
LIFE AINT FAIR
ONE MOMENT YOU HAVE YOUR DREAMS
THEN THEY DISAPPEAR
SLIPPED THROUGH YOUR FINGERS
INTO THE SANDS OF TIME
NEXT THING YOU KNOW
YOU TURN THE PAGE
ITS THE FINAL LINE

RAISE YOUR WEARY HEAD AND CARRY ON
FOR A BRAND NEW DAY HAS JUST BEGUN
DONT JUST WATCH YOUR DREAMS AS THEY DRIFT ( AWAY )
TELL ME WHAT DO YOU SEE AS YOU SIFT
THROUGH THE SANDS OF TIME

WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD
LIFE CAN BE HARD
YOU GOTTA SEARCH FROM WITHIN
TO FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE
TRY TO FIND THE COURAGE
TO FACE THE DAY
NEXT THING YOU KNOW
THERE YOU ARE
YOU RE ON YOUR WAY

WIPE THE SLEEP MY SON OUT FROM YOUR EYES
AND TAKE A LOOK INTO THE MORNING SKY
A BRAVE NEW WORLD AWAITS YOU THERE
BUT DONT YOU WAIT TO LONG CAUSE IT DISAPPEARS------INTO THE SANDS OF TIME

TELL YA WHAT YOU RE GONNA SAY-THINK

STAND UP STRAIGHT BOY AND ACT LIKE A MAN

THINGS THAT I START I ALWAYS SEE THROUGH

RUNNIN ROUND IN CIRCLES LIKE A DOG CHASIN HIS TAIL
I SWEAR TO GOD MAN IT FUCKIN NEVER FAILS
WHEN IT RAINS YOU KNOW IT ALWAYS POURS
THE HUNGRY WOLVES ARE HOWLIN AT YOUR DOOR

TELL YA WHAT YOU RE GONNA SAY-THINK
TELL YA WHAT YOU RE GONNA DO-FOR
TELL YA WHO IS WHO-YOURSELF
TELL YA THAT YOU RE GOIN BLIND-THINK
TELLYA WHAT YOU RE GONNA FIND-FOR

SEARCHIN FOR LIGHT WHEN YOU RE LOST IN THE DARK
MAN YOU RE WAY OFF THE MARK
LOOKIN FOR LOVE WHEN YOU HATE YOURSELF

FREEDOMS NEVER FREE ITS THE AMERICAN WAY
STEP BACK AND SEE AT THE END OF THE DAY
DOUBLE TAXED YEAH WERE DOUBLE FUCKED
IS THERE SUCH THING AS AN HONEST BUCK---DIRTY FUCKIN MONEY------
[ CHORUS ]
THINK FOR YOURSELF
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
THINK FOR YOURSELF
YOU KNOW THAT ITS SO TRUE

DONT LET EM PERSUADE YOU TO DO
ANYTHING YOU DONT WANNA DO
YOU CAN BE YOUR OWN PERSON TOO
JUST BE SURE NOT TO CONFUSE
CONFIDENCE FOR ARROGANCE
CAUSE IN THE END IT ALL MAKES SENSE
YOU GOTTA GOTTA THINK FOR YOURSELF

TELL YA WHAT YOU RE GONNA SEE-THINK
TELL YA WHAT YOU RE GONNA SAY-FOR
TELL YA TO GO AWAY-YOURSELF
TELL YA WHAT YOU RE GONNA KNOW-THINK
TELL YA WHERE YOU RE GONNA GO-FOR
NOWHERE-YORSELF

STAND UP STRAIGHT BOY AND ACT LIKE A MAN
STOP PISSIN IN THE FAN
HOLD YOUR HEAD UP AND LOOK EM IN THE EYE
SAY I'LL DO IT TILL I DIE

RUNNIN ROUND IN CIRCLES LIKE A DOG CHASIN HIS TAIL
VARIETYS THE SPICE OF LIFE DONT LET IT GO STALE
DONT BEAT AROUND THE BUSH MAN CUT TO THE CORE
GOD GAVE YOU A BRAIN BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT ITS FOR?
---------------THINK FOR YOURSELF---------------
