ST x LIAM - I Was Gonna Go To Sleep (But Then I Wrote A Verse) lyrics

[Verse 1 - ST] I seen leaders get elected, monuments get erected The lonely percent celebrate while the rest are disrespected Caviar cakes and champagne showers are blessed with Daily occasions to consume them if the power selected YOU, large universe with a small pond We all fishes, feeling radioactive from the tall bombs Tiny men drop, but we're not armed We chose to invest the power of society in dot coms sh**, blinded visions of higher wisdom that sits upon us Blocked by the lying fiction a wild addiction to products They flying missiles testing mixes and the line's official Feels like if they working for themselves it means that they against you Now think about it They educated you, so of course your judgment is clouded You always stay in line yet never feel like a coward In the night time, they take those who wanna be empowered [HOOK - ST] I was gonna go to sleep, but then I wrote a verse Thinking about the hunter and the prey, and which role is worse Die at the top with bloody hands or alone, solo Thinking about what you would do if the roles reversed Believe sacrifice's an option for the bigger church People on the war boards all looking miniature Die at the top with bloody hands or alone, solo Cause not everybody is sleeping when you getting yours [Verse 2 - ST] Society is living immature Concerned with false idols that rival the old that they bred in church Texting to vote, presidents are superstars *BARACK!* Puppets playing reality tv in front of peasant herds The entire world at the mercy of the eagle's beak Up at night cause important decisions are taken when people sleep Turned to zombies, their dreams are filled with schemes, but We're never gonna see a king lose his head to a guillotine Again, evolution counter balances freedom of speech Worst that can happen in terms of action a president's impeached How is the ma** supposed to cast an image of belief In itself, when its a victim of its own leaders' deceit Defeat, is not an option until that point is reached I'm trying to make a change but some walls I cannot breach Some knowl I cannot teach, for your own eyes have to see What goes on behind the scenes while most people are asleep [HOOK - ST] I was gonna go to sleep, but then I wrote a verse Thinking about the hunter and the prey, and which role is worse Die at the top with bloody hands or alone, solo Thinking about what you would do if the roles reversed Believe sacrifice's an option for the bigger church People on the war boards all looking miniature Die at the top with bloody hands or alone, solo Cause not everybody is sleeping when you getting yours
