lyrics

So many times I've tried to place our craft under the limelight.
Always pushed aside for reasons like where we reside.
Never given a chance to play for unfamiliar faces.
(They say) "Make us lots of money, sell 30 tickets, cut off your arms and legs and we'll negotiate"
While not denying the fact it'd be crazy to play a glossy poster show, I would rather play in places people probably wouldnt know.

For example, some kid's elbow greased up DIY show.
There's more to life than compensating for what you lack with royalties and brash.
Those type of people could stay the hell out of my life.
I've been in the game long enough to know it just takes determination to get past the toughest chodes.
So if no one ever hears this, then I guess we'll never know what could've been of a little project that could never rack the dough.

Cause fuck that shit if kids like us were never given shots, there'd be mostly poison apples in the so called melting pot.
There's diamonds buried underneath the soil of these cities.
But they're buried deeper than the pockets of the Impresario.

Mind over matter.
One day I'll be right.
Some day i'll be fine.
