Intro Lyrics by Foolish Ed

For The Cities That Sleep

2016

A lonely soul looking for gold
On this dusty road
Where his parents told him to go
Paved by the words of his elders
From the past world
Parents make you chase their dreams
Because they couldn't reach their goals
They force you to make their decisions
Instead of making your own
Go to college
Be in debt from student loans
And make it on your own
But you don't know
What you wanna do
Because you've been taught to do
What they want you do
It's the sad truth
We all experience it even you
Most of the time our parents follow
Theirs
It's a cycle that brings sadness to the air
It's not fair
That we have to live our lives
Trying to solve the problems with the world that their generation couldn’t
But who wouldn't wanna solve the world's puzzles
But the media puts a muzzle on our ideas
We have to stay quiet
So we have to keep it in private
Whether we like it or not
So it's our job
To break the cycle
They sleeping on me
Like they took some Nyquil
I'm spreading a message of truth
We have to find our path
And forget the past
So where your mind at?
I figured out where mine at
A piece of mind I wouldn't mind that
Your soul stores gold, but where the mine at
You need to find that
Be yourself and enjoy that
