"Hieroglyphics" lyrics

Born in the middle of an urban war
Staying out later than the street lights
In the days of ancient man
They had to fight to survive, because they had no plan

The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all
The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all
The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all

Everyday waking up in the same room
With six younger siblings who look up to you
Not knowing where this day will take you
Where are you going to run to, you don't know

The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all
The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all
The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all

Treating everyday like it was your last one
Having nothing in common with the outside world
The only way to reach them is to spray it on the walls
No one listens to your calls

Everyday waking up in the same room
With six younger siblings who look up to you
Not knowing where this day will take you
Where are you going to run to, you don't know

From the part of town where no one wants to go
Surrounded by a border that isn't even there
Living in a place where there's no regards for the law
Read the story it's tagged up on the walls

The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all
The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all
The hieroglyphics on the walls, they tell it all

From the part of town where no one wants to go
Surrounded by a border that isn't even there
Living in a place where there's no regards for the law
Just read the story on the walls
