Lyrics
Listen
I was told
When I was a boy you will grow
You better Have a job get employed
You better listen child and comply
Be happy in this life
But I never crack a smile cuz
I'm tired of hearing lies
Crushing all the dreams
They callin' it a message
A lesson that we need
I see it as regression
Cuz of teachers
Who told me that my vision
Could never be achieved
They questioned my decisions
Although I'm not surprised
Cannot blame them
They never had guidance
That wouldn't try to tame them
Enslaved in the circus like a lion
They never had a PETA
Exploited like the nurses
In my province
Working 'til unconscious
Mistreated at the bottom
They be dying from a seizure
They forgotten by the system
Of elites with no wisdom
To perceive
Who never try to listen
To those who need assistance
Wastin' our time it don't matter who die
At the end of the day may all angels all fly high
Wastin' our time it don't matter who die
At the end of the day may all angels all fly high
Please keep it safe
You gotta use your brain
You'll never make a million
So focus on degrees, it's the way
Get a bonus with the cheese and get paid
By obeying to the system
You'll get a high position
'Cause the bread you are chasing
Don't grow on money trees
And the music you are making
Will never set you free
I'm tryna sympathize
But it's hard when the people
Who hold you from the prize
Would rather trust they egos
They abandoned all their dreams
So they try to bring me down
The people in my town
Try to keep me from the crown
They never got to make it
So they hating they complacent
Tryna keep us in the dark
Throwing shade
We workin' in the basement
So we stay unscathed
Going at our cadence
And we got all the patience
Like every HABS fan
But we forgot the past
And it's why
We never going back
Wastin' our time it don't matter who die
At the end of the day may all angels all fly high
Wastin' our time it don't matter who die
At the end of the day may all angels all fly high
