DON'T BLAME IT ON YOUR DULL AGE
OR BEING STUCK LIKE POWDERED CRYSTAL
YOU NEED THE WATER FROM THE WELL JUST TO STING TO LIFE
YOU NEED THE WATER FROM THE WELL JUST TO BRING YOU TO FINE
DON'T BLAME IT ON THE LOW LIFE
OR THOSE GUARDED SICK OPINIONS
YOU KEEP YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK SOMEWHERE YOU THINK YOU CAN HIDE
YOU KEEP YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK BUT THE BANK WENT DRY
DON'T BLAME IT ON THE SYSTEM
WHEN WE'RE ALL A PART OF THE SYSTEM
EVEN THE PEOPLE IN THE AIR, THE PEOPLE OUTSIDE
THE ONES CLOSEST TO YOUR HEART
I KEEP YOU CLOSE IN MY (MIND)
DON'T BLAME IT ON YOUR OLD AGE
OR STICKING TO A NEW STYLE
YOU TAKE THE WATER FROM THE WELL THEN YOU LOOK INSIDE
YOU TOOK THE WATER FROM THE WELL BEFORE YOU EVEN KNEW WHY
IF YOU DON'T SEE ME RUNNING BROTHER HELP ME OUT
IF YOU CAN SEE IT COMING BROTHER SPELL IT OUT
IF THIS IS WHAT WE GET THEN GIVING IS ALL WE GOT
YOU'RE WORKING FOR TOMORROW BUT TOMORROW NEVER COMES
IF THIS IS WHAT WE GET THEN GIVING IS ALL WE HAVE
I'D RATHER STICK IT OUT THEN BE LYING IN THE GRASS
IF THIS IS WHAT WE GET THEN GIVING IS ALL YOU GOT
YOU'RE WORKING FOR TOMORROW BUT TOMORROW NEVER COMES
IF THIS IS WHAT WE GET THEN GIVING IS ALL WE HAVE
I'D RATHER STICK IT OUT THEN BE LYING IN THE GRASS
WE CAN TELL YOU THAT IT'S OK
WHEN EVERYTHING IS REALLY NOT OK
WE TAKE THE WATER FROM THE WELL WHEN WE KNOW IT'S RIGHT
WE TAKE THE WATER FROM THE WELL 'CAUSE NOW IT'S OUR
