Bullets & Rocks Lyrics
The days are growing short
patience wearing thin
blackouts and broken trust
leading to exodus
the future 's built on bullets and rocksThey'll search, they'll save
they'll find it one day
there's work to do
and mouths to feedWhy can't you see
this plaintiff plea
the future's starved
the families disappear
to the dark cover of the nightNo fear, no harm was meant
the smuggler joked
and down they went
the devil's highway
disguised as a cloud of dust and smokeNarcos and feds
are all intertwined
you can leave your valuables here
with me he smiledA future's promised to you
wrapped in their words without truth
echoes in a labyrinth of solitude
security built a lie, a wall
wrapped round and around fortitudeBullets and rocks
A future's promised to you
