headcase - write where it hurts lyrics

[prologue]
“you’re gonna take the whole world down with you? but why? that’s insane!”
“you think so? is there an indelible line dividing sanity from insanity? or do they change one into the other at the slightest turn of events? we’ll find out soon enough that the world itself is insane.”

[verse one]
to who it may concern, this planet is f-cked up
greed reigns supreme, people gamble and l-st bucks
armageddon’s on the way and we won’t be prepared
but what’s even worse is n0body cares
we’re all boxed in, inhaling the devil’s deadly toxins
basically, life is a game that you cannot win
the beauty’s worn away, everything is ugly
a white kid, but i’m starting to feel like chuck d
cause i got so much trouble on my mind
i try to help my friends, i try to be kind
but they hatin’, manipulatin’ with the lies they’re statin’
trying my patience, doing the work of satan
but if i start trusting in this world of sin
then the flesh will have me l-sting over girls again
though the world will be going to h-ll in a hand basket
with this, i’m offering you a helping hand, grab it

[hook]
what’s going on in the world today?
it seems to me the people have lost their way
and they refuse to listen as times get worse
that’s why i gotta hit the public right where it hurts
till the world becomes a better place, i won’t rest
i use music to teach the youth and relieve stress
the pain in my heart is reflected in my verse
so every song i write comes from where it hurts

[verse two]
don’t know where i’m going, you won’t believe where i’ve been
i’ve seen h-ll on earth before, don’t wanna see it again
how can hate destroy so many lives is what i want to know
no one tries to help, they just let the problem grow
we fight but scatter like mice when lightning strikes
dividing races, k!lling blacks, asians, latinos and whites
we think our own survival is vital
we fight for justice but commit injustice ourselves when we are on trial
genocide is televised for the public’s viewing pleasure
your surround sound system helps you hear the screams better
and the state doesn’t mind spending money to clean graffiti
but there’s not enough room in their budget to feed the needy?
we live in a world where kids have stopped dreaming
and every prayer we pray at night has lost all meaning
but saving ourselves is possible, the answer’s not illogical
we need to join together to overcome this obstacle

[hook]

[verse three]
tell me, how do you expect me to keep quiet
when crooked politicians keep the youth misguided?
the war on terror is the blueprint for the new civil war
between the drugs and addicts, life is only k!lling more
my purpose is to spark a belief till i’m starting to reach the m-sses
there will always be a heart that’s in need
“be thou for the people”, that’s my motto
if you can’t stomach the truth, why even bother to swallow?
with my music, i try to better humanity
but corruption causes justice to appear as insanity
where there is greed and power on earth, there is oppression
and we become the victims, led into deception
we won’t be able to control our own fate
until we’ve risen above everything that leads to hate
we must confront ourselves and be aware of our sins
cause that’s where the lies end and the truth begins

[hook]
