The Bottom

Rise You sold them self-esteem It starts to shape a level fantasy I believe in it, just believe in me now A tight but faulty grip It holds you down till you get over it And that's the last of the fight you're given (Hush, hush, hush) They're gonna tell you how you're gonna live (Hush, hush, hush) They're gonna tell you what you're gonna be (Hush, hush, hush) They're gonna tell you what you're gonna do now Tell you what you're gonna do now And if you don't stand you will fall They'll rest at the top And watch us fight for the bottom And if we don't escape You're not my enemy We'll start this war from the bottom I know your holy path This is where you suffer most But I'm still strongest when you're on my arm And this life stares you down till you blink twice And I won't leave until you start to realize You're praised for effort with bruised intent You listen better when you're broken and bent And if you don't stand you will fall They'll rest at the top And watch us fight for the bottom And if we don't escape You're not my enemy We'll start this war from the bottom I can't see an end for this That doesn't include your descent Your plan, their faith are left inverse What you call triumph I still call a curse Who becomes whose enemy Who becomes whose saving grace Rise up! Rise up! And if you don't stand you will fall They'll rest at the top And watch us fight for the bottom And if we don't escape You're not my enemy And I've seen enough to make a lifetime I've seen enough to make a lifetime I've seen enough to make a lifetime I'm still myself inside And if we don't escape You're not my enemy We'll start this war from the bottom
