'fore posting these lyrics , i must say about bathiya ( puffy - the guy rappin the first verse ) .
he is an underrated rapper in SL and very talented.
and talking about Minel , people say she suxx in da chorus , but i kno she did good ,
Submersed in the crowd getting cart to work I look around
but I see nobody smile, it hurts, 'cause I recall the lightness we took life with
before we gave up dreaming and gave in to living like this.
Close my eyelids and dive into the memories of times with no signs of worries,
before our mindless striving made us hurry early in the morning, yawning
as we're crawling to a job that's boring.
2x:
Up to this day I lived this way
so many days I threw away.
I keep going anyway
hoping someday things will change!
Sometimes it's good to lay back, close the eyes and visualize
far away places to escape modern day slaves' faces'
graceless stares into space as they chase through their days
all that remains is that look on their face.
Can't close my eyes forever though I wish I could,
gotta find a way to make it better for my own good.
All I know is I don't want to end up like them:
no passion flows through their veins so they're drained and bent, damn...
2x:
Up to this day I lived this way
so many days I threw away.
I keep going anyway
hoping someday things will change!
Up to this day I lived this way
so many days I threw away,
I keep going anyway
I know something's gotta change, 's gotta change, 's gotta change!
Up to this day I lived this way
so many days I threw away.
I keep going anyway
hoping someday things will change!
Up to this day I lived this way
so many days I threw away.
I no longer wanna wait,
I know something's gotta change!
