What They Want

from Live on WATD FM by brian wood capobianchi

lyrics

Chorus
I know what they want from me
I can see it in their eyes
Still they got a hold on me
But it ain't no big surprise
Cause we all still play this game
And we all still make our way
Even though we know this world has got to change

Verse 1
Yo, they want 1 for the television 1 for the screen
1 for the actors and 1 for movie scenes
For all of us living this crazy dream
A life of entertainment day by day don't take it lightly
1 for the artistry 1 for celebrity
For fan loyalty and 1 for what they'll never be
For the good guy fighting to right the enemy
To make him quick a friend to me
The lessons in the end are free
1 representation of 1 person's amazing
1 chance at glory and their 1 chance to take it
For all of us to have it all if we don't wait
And I still want to see you open up
Put em up and give me 1 for the shutter flash
1 for the magazine
1 for the dollar dash
1 for the end of greed
1 for the love 2 for the treble and 3 for the people that are on my level

Chorus
I know what they want from me
I can see it in their eyes
Still they got a hold on me
But it ain't no big surprise
Cause we all still play this game
And we all still make our way
Even though we know this world has got to change

Verse 2
Travel light young star-fed soldier
Hard to hear, so sad the Earth is too small to hold ya
The world's fears rested right upon your shoulder
You've known love so carry at your blown up
Go son, bound beyond our own sun
Hold none accountable boy, you on your own run
We hope one day you'll return home
With new science to save life in our galactic zone
In Nostradamus we don't trust
No most of us are still-willed, stuck and hopeless
But muster just enough to go nuts
Rush to cold crush another party
Go dumb till our head goes dumb
Or the wheels fall off
Or the dry well runs to the cracked drought cost of the modern day catastrophe
But no one's asking me
Lost in space you're the last to leave

Verse 3
This will be our last transmission from this position
We've amassed emissions well passed the living limits
Help has come and gone beyond our reach
And there is nothing lasting
We are not long for false beliefs or lost paths
Our best mathematician are calling this our last division
Then they predict the falling in will last long enough to transmit this message
You must not missed
You are destined
This is it
It's not a test
Blessed be the soul carrier
Deliver life beyond the barrier
So sad we left our home battered up
Took her children from her motherland in Africa
Across galactica
The universe diaspora
Pack your rations up
Clone your hard drive
Back it up
Save information for the rebuild
Renaissance stage set for the next play
Lost in space you're the last to get away

Chorus
I know what they want from me
I can see it in their eyes
Still they got a hold on me
But it ain't no big surprise
Cause we all still play this game
And we all still make our way
Even though we know this world has got to change
