Lyrics

Trading coffee for lunch ain't seen the fucking sun in months

Want to escape but can't leave until I'm done

Maybe wasn't raised right, maybe I'm just dumb

Sitting here waiting on the Lord's Kingdom to come

Like the disciple that laid Jesus down

Feeling enlightened or am I just institutionalized now?

Getting ahead of myself so I just close my mouth

Knowing one day if I endure I'm a get to wear that crown

No kids no bill, it's almost as if I was free

Materialism my jail cell, or so it seems to me

Still living in hell cause I'm a man with dreams

Still trying to trade fools for eggs or instant coffee

Counting down the time until the day I can go home

Whenever you wait that way it makes the time go slow

Choices we made, the fact is we are all grown

Trying to stay sane in my own way, trying not to bitch and moan


Imagine how you'd feel if you laid Jesus in the tomb

Lie and cheat to rob, steal, kill, and maim; it's me and you

Given in to sinning, is it the life we choose?

All the real disciples been down now with nothing to lose


The only apostle that ain't been locked down was Judas

Some say fuck the police, some go fuck the huras

Whether kush or Arizona we all smoking buddha

Is it we who create the lifestyle that it choose us?

Meanwhile, we let all the leaders use us

And the news and media, they try to fool us

Our own family members try to sue us

For our very own souls, sometimes we lose us

Where do we go now, is there anything worthwhile?

I'm thinking out loud in the midst of the crowd

Back then doing drugs, getting drunk, just trying to wild out

Coughing up blood somehow, what do I do now?

Silence is golden, olden days they still strayed

Pestilence of stolen time; rats and roaches sprayed

They be trying to go for mine; Lord, alleviate my hate

Forgive them for they know not what they do, Father, give us our bread today


Imagine how you'd feel if you laid Jesus in the tomb

Lie and cheat to rob, steal, kill, and maim; it's me and you

Given in to sinning, is it the life we choose?

All the real disciples been down now with nothing to lose
