Mouthwash - Live Like Kings lyrics

rate me

i watch the skyline change

over seamless days

from a topdeck view

from the barricades

where all the rudeboys and crooks

all wear their meanest looks

keeping the money making strictly off the books

[Chorus]

i watch the kids move in on the underground

with a taste of danger and the realest sound

i watch the yuppies buy in and try to capitalize

on the pains and joy of a furtive mind

tell me what to do today

working nine to five

i cannot live like that

because it seems like this city's geared to breed workers

just to keep it alive

we get high

we get low

we confess what we know

after all it won't be long till we forget about it all

amongst this urban debris

we learn to live like kings

and what else can we do

you're lucky if you got someone that cares for you

and don't try to fit in just assume that you do

lets get the full picture

your point of view

[Chorus]

this is the sound of a thousend dreams

impossible to over reach

not because we don't ry but because we aren't seen

and we don't know the meaning of prosperity
