sandpeople - forget it lyrics

[verse 1: ethic]
i live within these blinders
constant reminders to focus on myself
the hope is that it helps
to force somebody else to take that first step
and be a torch, my guiding light ain’t been used yet
it’s like, i’m more content to keep this world turning
than to stop for a second and address that there’s hurting
i’d rather attack someone that’s not
because there’s jealousy within me for these crabs in a pot
the passionate flock
follow the leader ‘til you crash to a stop
your back’s bein’ watched
but that’s okay, you keep lookin’ ahead
while livin’ for today’s been made officially dead
we’ll administer the blame, get you fitted for the chains
spend a minute, miniscule amount of time for the grains
of sand that pass through the glass, leaving us forgetful
it’s easy not to think of other people
[hook: ethic & sapient]
: forget it, nothing is permanent
: forgiveness, overlook earning it
: the innocent, embrace death
when you’re living in the future, it’s easy to forget
: forget it, nothing is permanent
: forgiveness, overlook earning it
: the innocent, embrace death
when you’re living in the future, it’s easy to forget

[verse 2: sapient]
electronic screens will teach him special intelligence
but the negative elements some feel compelled to skip
not forced to think, mind blank, face the television
games don’t portray that tanks make the skeletons in real life
the little child doesn’t realize
what a bullet hittin’ your skin could feel like
he k!lls time, if he gets shot in the game he’ll come back
but if he gets shot in the face then he’ll die
might as well buy him a toy machine gun
so he can dream of fatigues and blowing things up
we must remember what brings us to the end
it’s over+pleasing of the flesh and the people we neglect

[verse 3: mo+b]
it’s easy to forget what we go to work for
it’s easy to forget to put your best foot forward
they outsource the workforce, beat the workhorse dead
misled by the dreams that we work towards
you can find him on the corner, slangin’
we forgot we gave our students second+class education
separate the ignorance, what we’re all forgettin’ is
at one time, everyone’s bloodline was immigrant
we won’t forget the day that they hijacked the airplanes
forgot it was in striking distance of virginia air base
to paraphrase we should’ve shot ‘em down, but didn’t
we at war with ourselves, don’t forget it
[bridge: ethic]
forget it, nothing is permanent
forgiveness, overlook earning it
the innocent, embrace death
when you’re living in the future, it’s easy to forget

[hook: ethic & sapient]
: forget it, nothing is permanent
: forgiveness, overlook earning it
: the innocent, embrace death
when you’re living in the future, it’s easy to forget
: forget it, nothing is permanent
: forgiveness, overlook earning it
: the innocent, embrace death
when you’re living in the future, it’s easy to forget

[verse 4: simple]
i still destroy them from the f+ckin’ sky
land down on broken concrete and let the rain hit my open eyes
third time’s a charm if you’re open wide
rotate the dial ‘til you locate the broken vile
new school unabomber, “do not touch” signs
living in the land full of too long bus rides
how could you expect us not to bust nines
when guns can cost less than rent that last a month’s time
runnin’ past a fence, i must’ve bumped mines
and flagged down a ride that tried to jump time
trapped in traffic, punched a work drive
and once the breaks work, urge the van to the side of the dirt
it’s not like gettin’ mad when you stainin’ white shirts
and n0body wanna die, we afraid it might hurt
it’s time to turn tides and every day is like work
sittin’ too close to lights and you might get burnt
[bridge: ethic]
forget it, nothing is permanent
forgiveness, overlook earning it
the innocent, embrace death
when you’re living in the future, it’s easy to forget
