A Broken Silence - Rat Race

Текст песни

Stress running through your brain
And you’re running for the train
Hands fumbling for change
Just another on the chase
Dinner on your plate, but rent is coming late
See your Mrs at the gate, it’s written on her face
Giving up your wage and drinking with your mates
On a mission so your feet ain’t hitting on no brakes
Some do it out of love
Some do it out of hate
Some do it for themselves
Or in it to create
You shape the world, with the path you lead
I see a star as an image that is far from me
And every obstacle, their benefits are hard to see
But later find they’re the parts you need
Try to stand, but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that relates us all
Just trying to stand but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that shapes us all
Car tank is on E, you put your baby off to sleep
Who’ll pay electricity (maybe next week)
Trying to get up on your feet, not hearing about defeat
Just trying to earn your keep, without burning your beliefs
They making in the street, it’s hard to turn the other cheek
But is serving your dreams worth a furnace that deep
Hurting with fatigue, coercing you to flee
But every adversity makes that person you be
You shape the world with the path you lead
I see a star as an image that is far from me
And every obstacle, their benefits are hard to see
But later find they’re the parts you need
Try to stand, but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that relates us all
Just trying to stand but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that shapes us all
Try to stand, but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that relates us all
Just trying to stand but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that shapes us all
Trying to stand (stand), brace (brace), fall
That rat race (race), pace don’t stall, do what it takes
Break through walls, that paper chase, shapes us all (yeah)
Trying to stand (stand), brace (brace), fall
That rat race (race), pace don’t stall, do what it takes
Break through walls, that paper chase, shapes us all (yeah)
Try to stand, but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that relates us all
Just trying to stand but stay braced for the fall
In that rat race, where the pace never stalls
Sacrifice, patience, face to the wall
On that paper chase, that shapes us all
