timel the samurai - city memories lyrics

city memories lyrics
[intro]
yeah!
yeah!
samurai baby!
yeah!

[verse 1]
took a moment to write this line
i hope it takes you back in time
such memories are hard to find
i wonder what the world was like
when people never had the time
to sit and troll on people’s lives
when people never had the time
to look for others and feed them lies
i wonder what the world was like
when no one shared their lifе online
or think of way to bring you down
or posting what they had last night
or what their brеakfast might look like
i wonder what the world be like
if all we had postage stamps
those insult might just take some time
250 words from a useless mind
our ease of life has made us blind
from what you think is wrong or right
perspective is a rule of life
a thief would say he did no wrong
because he stole to save his child
a priest would say he did no wrong
because he saved the lesser ones
the rules of heaven clearly states the evil things
you must stay away, i wonder why you think it’s fun
when others try to fade away
you sit and smile when people cry
is it so hard to stretch a hand
you feeling like you own the world
but all you own is just your pride
i wonder what the world be like
if people could just take their time
to listen to ones who cry
to show them love and make them smile
not people who just lead you on
or lead you to the therapist
you sit and spit your problems out
an hour late, your time is up
she gets her pay, you head your way
her pocket’s fat, your troubles stay
you wile away, depression stays
this time we have is not our own
and once the heavens calls our names
the life we had, returned back home
so let’s all learn to cherish life
to live a life that’s full with smiles
[hook]
they feeling like they own the world
they feeling like they in control
they feeling like they own your soul
people try to feed your soul
with hate and pain to stop your growth
a city that was filled with life
becomes a place that tips your mind
to make you fall like dominoes

[verse 2]
i wonder bout a place like that
or maybe i’m just thinking of, a place of old
but where is that, a place we could all be free
a place that’s just like paradise
the negative be null and void
it won’t exist, it what they want
their thoughts be filled with negative
and if you smile, it wears them down
the joy you bring , it’s not enough
they asking where your problems be
like why you happy all the time
like you be meant to stay depressed
not pull yourself from all distress
i want a place, where there’s liberty
the freedom to express myself
so easily, to live in peace, avoiding people’s casualties
i want to build new memories, not fallacy this city brings, demoralizing its citizens, make them face the penalty of living like it’s prison time or living like the israelites
when they were stuck with egyptians
who whooped their ass relentlessly
like they were packs of animals, but still the lord was merciful
[hook]
i’m feeling like the world might change
i trying to see it differently
but all these years, keeps getting worse
but if the world remains the same
it’s up to us to change our ways
so when the world is crumbling
we’ll have a place to call our own
so i’m telling you, you have a choice
don’t live your life to please others, cause when they happy
you will be sad, they won’t be there to mend your heart
you’ll be alone or in your grave
there’ll be no one to hold your hand
i’m not saying you should be negative
just saying you should stay happy
and not be the one who breaks those hearts

[verse 3]
technology be the biggest drug
we sit and stare into the light
that shines so bright from a cl!cking screen
most people live a virtual life
on instagram, you have a voice
but in reality, it’s just a squeak
you shouting ’bout the injustice
i bet you never left your house
the matter starts and end at home
a question i would like to ask
would you be kind to avoid your phone
for just a day, just turn it off
and try face the world around
i see you can’t, it’s impossible
they fit they call from all my shops
make i quickly take this call
we all are slaves to the beeping tone
we grab our phones before we pray
straight from when the sun is up
i guess it’s now part of us
the internet that we take so high
still the one who brings us low
critics really rule this life
allowing people to decide for you
you only proud when they proud of you
believing what they think of you
obeying like they tell you to
i see your leash is invincible
