tessanne chin - guilty by design lyrics
[verse 1]
some say the only peace they know is in their pockets
but what is peace in the sh+ll of a bullet?
the stroking envy is gonna feel destructive
some say the only love they know is in the money
that you depend on to keep you happy
what happens when this piece of paper burns to ashes?
[pre+chorus]
are you gonna live for the needle?
you know they eventually k!ll you
do you really wanna see the eyes of your babies
looking down on you?
tеll me do you know what you’ve becomе?
living on an intoxicated wrong?
this morning black eyes will greet you
you say you’re sorry but tonight it continues
[chorus]
every+time i try (i try not to hear them cry)
every+time i try (i’m broken up inside)
and i can’t fight
the sickening truth inside
i’m guilty by design
[verse 2]
every morning i wake from these disturbing truths
that haunt me even when i sleep
bound in captivity till the substance weeping makes us free
and every day we try to pray but fail to obey
we live in vain if we can’t see
we’re not just here
we’re not just here for you and me
[pre+chorus]
taking life for granted sea and sand
you watch and face while some watch an empty pan
you see the jobs are scarce, and the cost is fierce
how can this be when we’re “out of many, one?”
tell me am i here to ignore the suffering my people do endure?
i’m drawing back my hand!
can you understand?!
we are guilty of f+cking up the plan!
[chorus]
every+time i try (i try not to hear them cry)
every+time i try (i’m broken up inside)
and i can’t fight
the sickening truth inside
i’m guilty by design
i’m guilty by design
i’m guilty by design
[bridge]
guilty by design
who will save us now
[chorus]
every+time i try…
every+time i try (i try not to hear them cry)
every+time i try (i’m broken up inside)
every+time i try!
and i can’t fight
the sickening truth inside
i’m guilty by design
guilty by design
