Lyrics Bread & Roses - Stray From The Path feat. Jesse Barnett

What did you leave behind?
More than a wish, more than a pastime
The weathered wings of the worker bee
Drowning in debt to the depths
I regret the day I let them take the flight from me

What did you give up
To try and keep a kid tucked in?
Shielded from the cold
It's a sin
The unequals can't win
Until they control it
So give me bread and roses

You get by, or you don't
You can't stop, or you won't?
Realize, what is yours is mine
You control it
So give me bread and give me roses

Have nots always have not
Been the long shot but the sorrow sticks
Into mortar and brick
Build the castles as the capital rains from the sky
You're left out to dry

What is life when hearts starve as well as bodies?
No one thrives in the descent
And the end won't justify the means
So what justifies the end?

You get by, or you don't
You can't stop, or you won't?
Realize, what is yours is mine
You control it
So give me bread and give me roses

Lend out a hand that you can't retract (Can't retract)
Worked to bone, yea, it breaks your back (Breaks your back)
It boils up until your skin cracks
No man is my master

Fall back

So give me bread and give me roses

You get by, or you don't
You can't stop, or you won't?
Realize, what's yours is mine
You control it
So give me bread and give me roses
