Inheritance Songtext
von Ampersandre

So sure those words are given to allay
For the comforting, the reasoning
To light our darker days
We take the punishment for it renews our faith
Cuz we know the tables can turn around
We have seen how they are made
But do we know, that′s really what was meant
That the meek shall inherit the earth?
Look around to see the fortune that we spent
In the end is it just barren rock and dirt?

Tell me do you still feel fine?
Spill the water and drink the wine
I dare you, in your shortened time,
To tell me what you've got?
Lead lined, and pesticides, kill us but we pay no mind
Instead, we wonder how the sickness choses who
Yeah
Part of the ninety-nine no one wants to hear your cries
Cuz poison is easier, to swallow than the truth


Way down we know inside,
That we′re getting nothing in the end
For who's left I sympathize,
We've been doing nothing
Long before you came

Get away, get away,
Get away before it goes away
A future that we can′t escape
And famine to our amber waves of grain
Steel away, steel away
Cuz coming soon′s our rainy day
And I don't think we′re ready, no
For heaven with an after-glow
But this is what we get where we go

Now we know the words are mind control.
To make us blind, to pacify, To keep the status quo
Wake up, we're not alright, see the numbers, they don′t lie
It's in our hands, and we′re running out of time
Because we're part of the ninety-nine, no one wants to hear our cries
Cuz poison is easier, to swallow than the truth

Way down we know inside,
That we're getting nothing in the end
For who′s left I sympathize,
We′ve been doing nothing long before you came


Get away, get away,
Get away before it goes away
A future that we can't escape
And famine to our amber waves of grain
Steel away, steel away
Cuz coming soon′s our rainy day
And I don't think we′re ready, no
For heaven with an after-glow

Get away, get away,
Get away before it goes away
A future that we can't escape
And famine to our amber waves of grain
Steel away, steel away
Cuz coming soon′s our rainy day
And I don't think we're ready, no
For heaven with an after-glow
But this is what we get where we go
