paroles de chanson Heaven Knows - The Odd 910 feat. Franklyn

We all wanna eat the cake
But nobody wants to die
Nobody wants to jump
'cause no one knows how high

We all wanna go both ways
But nobody can decide
We all want the real McCoy
But the furthest we seem to get is the Four by Five

We all want a little love
But a little love is in short supply
We're forever beating around the bush
While the garden's getting drought dry

We all need a little grease
Be it for the wheel or for the hand
We swallow the bitter pill
Though for what reason we never understand

I probably wouldn't wager my freedom
For people basing life offa TV shows
Folks are living life by the needle
Is it just me, or is that just the way it goes?
Heaven knows

Penny for my thoughts get your wallets out
Plenty people posing all they want is clout
There's danger, disaster and there's a lot of doubt
Blowing cali just to cope it's got us cotton-mouthed
So many questions unanswered man only heaven knows
How much time that I've wasted and how much bread I've blown
How many tears I've shed, prayers I've said for my friends on road
It was December cold
All this stress I hold
But I see the bigger picture so I'm keeping focused
I've been chasing these figures but it's just freedom tokens
Look how this wicked system got my people hopeless
I want that whip without the roof me while there's people homeless
Gotta starve the distractions and try and feed the focus
I'm about that action not a peaceful protest
The more I reflect on our mortality
The more I accept this is all vanity

I probably wouldn't wager my freedom
For people basing life offa TV shows
Folks are living life by the needle
Is it just me, or is that just the way it goes?
Heaven knows

No one knows what they want
But everybody knows just what they don't
Everyone says they will
But we all know that they won't

Gluttony killed the cat
We all know a cat who got the cream
While felines are getting fat
The mice are doing all the work, getting twice as lean

We all want to know the truth
But most of us live a lie
Bitten off more than we can chew
It's getting hard to deny

We all wanna tie the knot
'til we get a case of the cold feet
We all say we'll take the shot
'til we've got the gun in hand, and we're in the heat

I probably wouldn't wager my freedom
For people basing life offa TV shows
Folks are living life by the needle
Is it just me, or is that just the way it goes?
Heaven knows
Kids are out there facing their demons
Never had the chance for a dream to grow
People getting locked up for treason
When all they wanna see is the truth exposed
Heaven knows
