[Verse: Tedashii] |
|
My Lord |
|
Look around, I see paradise disappear |
|
It's a mirage to the people who's still living here |
|
Make no mistake, life is great, but it's still lacking |
|
Sister gone, son gone, can't deny what happen |
|
Expensive look, crystal clear, this ain't paradise |
|
Killing yourself to make it work, now that's a sacrifice |
|
It's pointless as a broken arrow, put a bow on it |
|
Wrap it up and make it pretty, maybe they won't notice nothing |
|
Yeah, falling for the okey-doke |
|
Guaranteed you'll take it baby, if you know she'll hold you close |
|
In the lap of luxury, she hugging me |
|
I'm out here exposing all my private matters publicly |
|
Please pardon the interruption, but you don't know the score |
|
You don't know the game, I ain't talking bout' a sport |
|
This is real life |
|
Where real people sneak and creep and cheat on they real wife |
|
We got real problems |
|
That's the real world |
|
It's hard to face reality with the image blurred |
|
It's hard to see the world for what it really is |
|
A death trap, don't get attached, it's coming to an end |
|
It's coming to an end! |
|
I think you need to know |
|
Teddy Pendergrass said it well, "You need to let it go" |
|
Let me go |
|
I tell the world, no holding back |
|
Love's like money I borrowed |
|
I guess I owe you that |
