Sidelines, Pt. 2

Lyrics

[Verse] But we live in a corrupted system So we think that wealth is wisdom And you ain't gotta get a hundred years from a judge to spend your whole life in prison See, that's a mindset that I've lived in Could have been another one of its victims But it's time that I own up to the fact that I don't know much That right there is a gift 'cause I ain't restricted no more But we're all chasin' happiness That's like chasing a pot o' gold at the end of the rainbow It's not happenin' And at first I found that bafflin' But on the real though life's challenging So how can I try and feel so positive at all times When at times I'm battlin' something like Luke Skywalker and Anakin Man are a chitter and chatter and talkin' the maddest ting, madder ting though Life ain't badda boom, badda bing though Can't stand still like mannequin though Call me a side man, man a Ringo Still got a part to play in my role I don't wanna hate on the government, no But they don't represent what I hope Yeah I hope that we don't always stay so insular I hope that we learn to forgive anyone for any wrong that they ever did to us I hope that we look beyond our own interests Yeah, I hope that we realise that there's life outside of the internet Wait, wait, I'm not finished yet I hope we protect, not neglect those that get left behind and upset And try to get up, yet it's like they're held down and muted, no sound A secret world kept, I guess My hopes, see, aren't realistic So was everything before it existed I hope I can act on the thoughts in my mind And I don't stay sitting on the sidelines [Outro] (Where do I start) I just been sittin' on the sidelines (There's too much noise) May be about the time to get my mind right (Where do I start) I just been sittin' on the sidelines (There's too much noise)
