Lives Of Many - Wish For Wings

This is where I stand up for myself

All the things that were promised to me

They fell through like I’m walking on water

I’m treading the surface

It always feels hopeless

There must be something more than this

More than the life we have given our lives for

Clenched fists of the hopeless

And still nobody cares

So many lives

Have been lost on account of someone else’s words

Taken for granted

Their souls have left too soon from here

I know of your intentions

You won’t break us down

Deep rivers of affluence

Buried underneath this blood drenched sand

White collars are watching

Reaping the spoils of progress

I know of your directions

And you can’t break me down

Cause I refuse to move

You won’t bring me down this time

You won’t have my forgiveness

This day as my witness I will prove you wrong

Ill scream it from the top of my lungs

This is a war, and I have won

You won’t make another mark on this skin

You won’t even get the chance

To break free from the grip of your taument

Just let me go
