The Same Way

Inner perspective

Nothing is more stressful than not knowing about that next meal or when that check coming in

Seem like the walls are caving in

Survival mode again

Focused on the win

Outside distractions all gone in the wind

Digging deep using everything within

Hope I hit the jackpot on this next spin

If I don’t then cool

I’m all in again

Me and these sins gotta make a mends

Look past the enemies

Keep an eye on the friends

Going out the same way that I came in

Going out the same way that I came in

7 billion people can we save them

200,000 sacrificed so he could save him

Feels like the devils work

So I pray amen

Cause I know I was made to face the

Situation I’m in

Prophets of the science preaching stay in

Ignorance and defiance mask off

back rallying again

Free base toxic waste

Dog food foil and and a pen

Do you know the message you want to send

Me and these sins gotta make a mends

Look past the enemies

Keep an eye on the friends

Going out the same way that I came in

Going out the same way that I came in
