The Promised Land Lyrics by James “J.T.” Taylor

Master of the Game

0

[Verse 1]
We've been searching up and down this weary country, mmm
Worn out, looking for ways that we could feed our hungry, oh
We were told the streets were paved with gold (Paved with gold)
And the future would be ours to hold
But we’ve seen the dream get bought and sold
[Chorus]
In the promised land
We don't wanna hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before, yeah
In the promised land
[Verse 2]
We try to be faithful to our true convictions, oh
But there’s so much danger in the heart's addictions, mmm
We were told that we could have it all (Have it all)
Now our backs are up against the wall
As we stand looking at the rise and fall
[Chorus]
Of the promised land
We don't wanna hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
He's heard all the promises before
[Bridge]
Smoldering ice, concrete and steel
Rebuild the dream that no longer seems real
Tell me, where did we go wrong?
And what would it take to heal this condition
Before it's too late now?
[Chorus]
In the promised land
We don't wanna hear it anymore
'Cause the common man
Has heard all the promises before, yeah
In the promised land
We don’t wanna hear it anymore
’Cause the common man
He's heard all the promises before (Before)
[Outro]
In the promised land
’Cause the common man
He's heard it all, no more promises, oh
In the promised land
We don't wanna
'Cause the common man
Looking for ways that we could feed our hungry
And what will it take?
In the promised land
