willy j "the prisoner of hope" - empty bottles lyrics

verse 1:

welcome to my bar, pull a stool and sit a bit
hang your coat let’s talk awhile cuz’ i got nothin’ here to sip
it wasn’t long ago these bottles were filled up with spirits
the kind that make you feel alive when it hits your lips

nowadays it seems that people only drink light
lacking the body, that was crafted for dark nights
really, that’s out fault we fell from the recipe
allowed to be modified to fit the modern need

so they took some of our bottles and they changed em’ up
washed out the content and filled em’ up with different stuff
a new label full of lies and it’s full of sweet
they drink it up but they don’t know it’ll rot they teeth

the bottles here a barely hangin’ on as you can see
lost a lot of fluid over time, such a tragedy
we stick to what was written hopin’ people catch a taste
of what’s real substance before they taste the fake

hook: 2x
poor out but they got left to give
empty bottles, broken, no will to live
dried up and they’re feelin’ like they’re worthless
fill em’ up and send em’ out where the thirst is

verse 2:

now i think about it, i got something for you, hold on
it’s in the upper room but just know it’s kinda strong
aged to perfection, let me get the high ball
this drink here? is the one that started it all

we built this place around this drink we all became influenced
every bottle here was made with the base of this fluid
every vessel eager to pour out and display
the flavor of this fruit that’s watered down in this day

we need to go back to the vine and pick it’s ripest fruits
we need to go back to the vine and learn from it’s roots
become stronger and wiser than we’ve ever been
welcome to the grand opening of new wine skins

fill the bottles back up and p-ss em all around
and they’re always on the house no matter how large the crowd
give it out for free and we’ll love til’ it hurts
you ain’t get the song yet man? i’m talkin’ ’bout the church

- willy j the prisoner of hope lyrics
