Lyrics
Some say the only peace they know is in their pockets
But what is peace in the shell of a bullet
[?] melody gonna be 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?
Are you gonna live for the need of
You know they eventually kill you
Do you really wanna see the eyes of your babies
Looking down on you
Tell me do you know what you've become
Living on an intoxicated wrong
This morning black eyes will greet you
You say you sorry but tonight it continues
Every-time I try (I try not hear them cry)
Every-time I try (I'm broken up inside)
And i cant fight
The sickening truth inside
We're guilty by design
Every morning I wake from these disturbing truths
That haunt me even when I sleep
Bounded in captivity till the substance weeping makes us free
And every day we try to pray fail to obey
We live in vain if we cant see
We're not just here
We're not just here for you and me
Taking life for granted sea and sand
You watching 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 u understand
We are guilty of fucking up the plan
Everytime I try
Everytime I try
And I cant fight
The sickening truth inside
I'm guilty by design
I'm guilty by design
I'm guilty by design
Guilty by design
Who will save us now
Every-time I try
Every-time I try
Every-time I try
Every-time I try
And I cant fight
The sickening truth inside
I'm guilty by design
Guilty by design
