Ya stayed to play

So ya rolled the dice

Somebody's gotta lose gotta get it right

Wired out get ripped and sliced

Ya gotta watch your back or you'll

Pay the price, yeah, oh, yeah

Cause you don't die with dignity

Not here not anywhere

Lie bleedin' on the sidewalk man

And you know nobody cares

Can ya see, oh

There's blood across the tie dyed skies

See the world through different eyes

It's been cummin' for a long long time

Agony across the city

City of lies

I've been starin' into nothin'

Hopin' somebody might be there

Just to see a million people

Who never really cared

Looks real down behind the ghetto wall

Stoned eyes shine like windows

There's blood across the tie dyed skies

See the world through different eyes

It's been cummin' for a long long time

Agony across the city

City of lies

I can't pretend

I can sit right back

Put my feet up thinking

There ain't no one stick

A knife in my back

This ain't no perfect world

no perfect place

Ain't no one got a perfect face

And that includes me

Gotta face the truth

Gotta realize no one lives on alibis

Not me not you not him

See the youth while on the rage

It's time we turn a different page

And try

There's blood across the tie dyed skies

See the world through different eyes

It's been cummin' for a long long time

Agony across the city

There's blood across the tie dyed skies

See the world through different eyes

It's been cummin' for a long long time

Agony across the city

The city of lies
