Redrama - Better Man lyrics

rate me

Verse 1

When you're weary and tired

would I lend you my lighter?

would I tell you good-by or would I defend you through

fire?

would I carry your weight,

or say have it your way?

just panic and say: "I know it's tragic but hey..

I'm generating my money, they aint taking my money"

cus people who share usually get mistaken for dummies

in the age of greed, the age of need mother earth

screwed and we're setting the rapist free

but I refuse to think

people are selfish the people I choose to spend time

with are selfless

lot of people got dealt with,

a poor set of cards a poor number of jobs

so now numbers a starve

I hate to look in the mirror

cus the image is blurry and I'm too busy to worry

so I live in a hurry so if you think of it really

I'm both rich and a crook

cus I eat everyday and still bitch in my hook.

Chorus

I go for mine

and you go for yours

but I won't survive if you don't support

if I close my eyes and you close your door

then hate multiplies and we lose it all.

I look in the mirror,

trying to see a better man

a better man, a better man (be, be) a better man, (be,

be) a better man

Verse 2

War's religion driven, of course we thinking different

we're lost, we're killing children in the name of

I'd put family first, so if my family's hurt

and worse come to worse, I'd go to jail, done.

so there I go, I got me a problem dropping a bomb on

Bin Laden's not gonna stop it evolving

lost souls speaking chat-room morse-code

but life's a too long road to walk alone though

no man is an island, I'll be damned if I'm lying

I aint planning to die alone, I'm planning to grow

and still I had to burn some bridges cus somehow it

seems that the devil learned my digits

I try to make the best with

what I was blessed with

karma's a bitch and I feel her breath on my neck kid

the way I lived my life is not that righteous

had to be on the dark to recognize the light when

Chorus (x2)

I go for mine

and you go for yours

but I won't survive if you don't support

if I close my eyes and you close your door

then hate multiplies and we lose it all.

I look in the mirror,

trying to see a better man

a better man, a better man (be, be) a better man, (be,

be) a better man
