lyrics
"Gimme Some Soul" (D. Blood)
Trees drop, malls crop sitting on blacktops
Hot wax, four tracks blowing up smoke stacks
Land fills, minds spill, passing out hand bills
Just tell me who or what is coming for me
Gimme some soul
Small type, all hype, out of work, out of sight
Play dead, stay fed, don't believe what you've read
Fat cats, eat gas, beaten' on fake stats
Can't get my foot in the door of industry
Gimme some soul
Downloads, choke hold, looking young, feeling old
Waste time, feel fine, looking for the bottom line
Soft sale, retail, images turning pale
They say the kid's alright, they don't fool me
Gimme some soul
Born late, high stakes, make amends with your fate
Take time, rewind, robbing all the people blind
Drone rock, take stock, seeing where the needle drops
Stare down at bottles that sit in empty seats
