wings in the gutter
I hear this song in the voice of someone like Danielle Ponder
the rats at the bottom
are so hateful (hateful),
the mice in the middle
are so blameful (blameful),
and of them snakes you gotta
be so careful (careful),
to rise above ‘em all
stay so faithful (faithful).
.
but watch out
as you rise
for their
envious
eyes
.
Oh, they will bite you, fight you,
Always try to fright you
.
you gotta close your eyes and not react
just be aware when you turn your back
.
Oh, they will bite you, fight you,
Always try to fright you
.
you gotta close your eyes and not react
just be aware when you turn your back
.
oh, it’s a hateful world
that we live in (live in),
those people don’t know
of forgiving (forgiving),
they say it’s the strongest
who survives,
but I wanna be the one
who thrives.
.
Oh, they will bite you, fight you,
Always try to fright you
.
you gotta close your eyes and not react
just be aware when you turn your back
(on their world)
.

Great song. Song? Yeah, I think so.
Now you’re a lyricist Kayleigh!.. Nice! 😁
This was extremely powerful and had so much truth to it!
