I was pissed as fuck. i was beatin at the gate. I didnt really care that all they did was stare At me and push me out again All i ever wanted was the promised land Need to get out before Babylon burns When the riots overflow with decadence My knuckles are white as i grasp the iron bars I see the fancy houses, money, and cars I cant get in And im beatin on Babylon's gate And they shut me out And i was never accepted again I was on my own. i was out in the cold. I couldnt hold a job but sure could hold a dream I sought Shangrila at the bottom of a bottle Distorted through the glass all i got was Babalonia I stood on the border and screamed for admittance Resection was my reward for all my persisstance Frothin at the mouth and chompin at the bit I refuse to give up and quit Caught in the crossfire between sin and salvation Tired of dissappointment. tired of devestation Why are you so convinced that you deserve it all? Why am i the one that has to take the fall? I want to bathe in the light of material perversion Instead im stuck workin for a living Well fuck the easy life, ive waiting too long I gotta get used to being accepted not at all.
