Born In A Cent - Remember When lyrics

9 to 5 in a job that we hate Molding our minds to serve food on a plate Wasting our time asking who's to blame When hushed pain claims This is not why we came To the city that saves Mom would always say You are what you make But the money i made As a paid wage slave With my own path to pave Is a pa** to the grave A tombstone that says A beautiful waste Of what could have been Oh, what if we end up like them? Remember when enough was enough No matter what we'd do what we loved Remember when We said it wouldn't happen to us Remember when i was only three And i asked dad what life means He said "Charlene It's whatever you dream." So i closed my eyes and went to sleep I was lucid and lying in a field of green But there weren't sheep And there weren't trees Just the sun, the sky and me "life means i'm alone" i thought innocently And for awhile, that was my decree Till i heard a preacher on the street Say "love is life and life is free" So i sought out to be all i could be I fell in love and then consequently I fell in line, we got mouths to feed Oh, this isn't what our lives should mean Remember when we started to fall In love to in line to "having it all" Remember when We thought we'd change the world?
