Hope can only get me so far

I also have to be willing to catch a few scars

And I also have to be willing to apologize

And I also have to be willing to scrutinize

And I also have to be willing to not be right

But I also have to be willing to fight fight

Doing nothing is something I do too well

Hiding in plain sight is heaven and it feels like hell

Giving up on goodness starts to make sense

When my only aim is self defense

Money can do a lot of things

But it can’t buy dignity

No it can’t buy that for me

And it can’t buy my family

And it can’t buy my mind

But it can feed mankind

But it can't buy the sky

Doing nothing is something I do too well

Hiding in plain sight is heaven and it feels like hell

Giving up on goodness starts to make sense

When my only aim is self defense

I don’t have to do anything

But I can do something

I can say no

I can move slow

I can sing loud

I can and how

Doing nothing is something I do too well

Hiding in plain sight is heaven and it feels like hell

Giving up on goodness starts to make sense

When my only aim is self defense

And even if I fall on my face and hit the ground

Blood on my face is better than clown makeup
