"Cold World" lyrics
(feat. Benny Morrell)
Cold 'til you came
Heal my soul
Break my chains
'Cause I can't keep control
When they holding my feet to the floor
See, this night don't wait for no man
Life don't care if you think you're broken
Think you're chosen, think you're so mad
It's only how you feel up in the moment
Are you happy? Brother, are you fulfilled?
Of your social shell when you really feel
Small man run around like big feel
[?] runnin' around in some big heels
You can't decide when you'll be liked
When they won't mind your business
There will be fights, they won't be kind
They ain't gon' mind your feelings
Cut out the highs, cut out the lows
Cut out the super villains
Cut out the fear, God-willing
When it's done
It's all the same
Painting faces with a foot in the grave
Said enough
They love to take
I've been passed around more than a [?]
It's nothing new
What's left to do?
They set us up enough to watch us lose
To the beat of their drum
Whole world loves to view
Cold, cold world, it left me battered and bruised
Battered and bruised
And I ain't got time to be your enemy
I got too much to do before I go
Only half of this is energy
And dreams ain't gonna work until you do
Too many wishing their death on me
I don't even know their names
Lonely faces hide behind a screen
Broken-hearted brother, I relate
But anger is a weak man's trait
Pain ain't gonna go away till you find it, face it, change it
Re-arrange how you frame it
We all hold a piece of Mona Lisa in the making
Fame ain't gonna be your saviour
Having kids ain't gonna fix you
Maybe a smile at a stranger's enough to be missed now
When it's done
It's all the same
Painting faces with a foot in the grave
Said enough
They love to take
I've been passed around more than a [?]
It's nothing new
What's left to do? (What's left?)
They set us up enough to watch us lose
To the beat of their drum
Whole world loves to view
Cold, cold world, it left me battered and bruised
Battered and bruised
But you can't let them pull you down to their world, nah (No, no)
We can't let them make you feel how they feel about themselves (No, no)
A real gauge of behaviour is when there ain't no witness
Mother nature, we done failed her
And no one matters, say you're no mistake, gon' fix it
Actions are louder than words you say
No more tears from a rattlesnake
Weight of the world on your murdered brain
Know what's great that can help with the pain?
Helping the helpless, mate
But everybody too damn selfish, hey
Self inflated, all they do is take
Take and take until they take the cake
And you can't decide when you'll be liked
When they won't mind your business
There will be fights, they won't be kind
They ain't gon' mind your feelings
Cut out the highs, cut out the lows
Cut out the super villains
Cut out the fear, God-willing
When it's done
It's all the same
Painting faces with a foot in the grave
Said enough
They love to take
I've been passed around more than a [?]
It's nothing new
What's left to do?
They set us up enough to watch us lose
To the beat of their drum
Whole world loves to view
Cold, cold world, it left me battered and bruised
Battered and bruised
Heal my soul
Break my chains
'Cause I can't keep control
When they holding my feet to the floor
See, this night don't wait for no man
Life don't care if you think you're broken
Think you're chosen, think you're so mad
