Voodoo Glow Skulls - The Rat Traps Lyrics

Voodoo Glow Skulls Lyrics

"The Rat Traps"

Welcome to the rat traps
And to my neighborhood
Everybody's struggling
And misunderstood
The dope man and the hookers
And the poor Hispanic family
Have all been praying
Dying in this reality

This is how we live
This is where we live
This is how I live
This is where I live

My friend he used to live there
Until the age of seventeen
Raised with love and honor
Single parent family
Painting a pretty picture
Of the neighborhood
Broken kids existence
Is what I understood

This is how we live
This is where we live
This is how I live
This is where I live

Rat traps! Rat traps!
Rat traps! Rat traps!

Some people are forgotten
Others might get found
Caught up in the nothing
Of life and tragedy
Blue collar acceptance
With religious tradition
Making a better life
Don't feel bad for me

For some that's all they got
I think it'll always be here
Happiness without ambition
What's in store for me?
What happened to hope?
All I know is desperation
This place, it bleeds frustration
The rat traps take from me

This is how we live
This is where we live
This is how I live
This is where I live

Rat traps! Rat traps!
Rat traps! Rat traps!
