Robin Hood

What is wrong with the world today?
Can’t you see they stole your freedom away?
Those that try to fight are shut up and blindfolded
Ignore the beast that is standing over you
But it won’t ever go away
I’m left in a place where heroes die
And the ignorant survive

The clueless I’ll pray for you
Broken but still not hopeless
Do whatever I can to make things change
Knowing it takes everyone to stop the bleeding
Showing respect to those that give out love
All those that keep on giving their all


Once I believed the sky’s the limit
Still I’m here only gaining what my bosses allow me to have
Paid slavery
I’m no longer chasing dreams
I have become the all forgotten used
Chasing the wants of the rich and greedy
Respect has become a thing of the past
But no more, not for me
I won’t lose sight
There’s a whole world that still needs saving

The clueless I’ll pray for you
Broken but still not hopeless
Do whatever I can to make things change
Knowing it takes everyone to stop the bleeding
Showing respect to those that give out love
All those that keep on giving their all


The rich step on the poor
Earned their money on the backs of the working class
Sending kids off to war
Never willing to get their own hands dirty
Yet they think they’re so much better than us
I’ll always be the one to fuck the rich
And give to the poor
I could have a million fucking billion
It wouldn’t faze me one bit
Give it all away
To see smiles on starving children
