lyrics

So you’ve got bullets in each lung; just keep on breathing
So you’re locked in prison for a crime you didn’t commit, well, just stand up and get to leaving
So you walked off a cliff, big deal, just tell gravity to leave you be
So you got your life torn down; you wouldn’t need secrets if you were free

It’s a meritocracy, kid; start running if you don’t want to be left behind

So your electricity’s cut off, so simply will yourself to see in the dark
So the doors are closed, so what; simply walk through them to make your mark

Pull yourself up by the bootstraps
Physics be damned
If you can’t perform daily miracles
Are you even human?
