King Cobb Steelie - Rational lyrics

Today I tried like hell to clear my head of troubled times But I couldn't stop the desperation fighting for my life Never held illusions, never fallen on pretense While I worried how to make the rent, they put a bullet in your head Saro-wiwa, when will this struggle end? Losing faith in my convictions and the words that I have read Saro-wiwa, each day so many lies Conscience traded on the market while the poor are left to die Today my courage failing as the bills replace the lines That used to give me so much hope for stories to survive Today I felt like dying as I read those lines again Apocalypse or jubilee, I just want to see the end Zapatista, they tried to tell us that The future holds out no more promises and history's reached the end Zapatista, when will this struggle end? Losing faith in my convictions while I watch you lose your land
