lyrics

I was born to fail but I’ll die to win and it’s sink or swim & I’m going in
I remember it all like yesterday the winter the fall the spring the summer the years that all been swept away the tears we keep between each other fear is like a secret lover here and there we rediscover listen off in the distance you can almost here the drummers coming soldiers marching cold and heartless rolling on hopeless targets control the global markets blind our eyes total darkness I had a dream I walked with Martin Luther King Jr he asked me brother are we free in the future

I was born to fail but I’ll die to win if I fall then I’ll fly again yeah these walls are closing in and it’s sink or swim & I’m going in
Put your glasses on put the camera flashes on in a flash the moment is passed and now the past is gone still we carry on popping Dom Perignon all night like it’s alright we in Babylon babble on battle song get your time travel on get your mind strong don’t be food for the carrion crows put your seat backs up and stow your carryons the globe bout to heat back up so throw your cherry bombs

I was born to fail but I’ll die to win if I fall then I’ll learn to fly again these old walls are closing in but my backs against the wind it’s sink or swim and I’m going in
From the fruit to the root (ugh) vine to the wine with my own eyes I’ve watched it grow with some help from the divine each moment’s valuable time each moment wasted’s a crime each moment’s gone so own it get g-g-get it while the picking is prime I built a bridge across this chasm I’m up and at em I planted my seeds and waited until the stars aligned with Saturn gave a fuck about flossing that’s not in my fashion sense so deep it’s fathomless don’t ask me why I’m going in

I was born to fail but I’ll die to win if I fall then I’ll fly again yeah these walls are closing in and it’s sink or swim & I’m going in
Look- I come in peace but y’all don’t wanna see the beast when he sharpens up his teeth so I keep him on a leash and every Friday the 13th I let him out to feast and he’s deadly when he speaks put your head under sheets when there’s trouble in the streets that goes double from police they always fucking up our hustle will the struggle never cease when they lock us up in cages then they throw away the keys & I know Jesus gonna save us but today we gotta eat yeah

I was born to fall and bred to sin I’ll die before I fail to win these old walls are closing in but my back’s against the wind it’s sink or swim and I’m going in
Back on my feet in the blink of an eye by the time that it takes for the raven to fly I take it so high I be scraping the sky and it’s making you cry as I’m waving goodbye I wanted so badly to tell you I love you so madly there’s nothing I value above you and nothing can stop you and nothing can touch you it’s only yourself that you gotta live up to and I got to be the man I know you need a man in Neverland find me with my Lost Boys Peter Pan son of Abraham lead the people out of Egypt’s land they said we wouldn’t make it but you can if you believe you can I was born to fail but I’ll die to win
