lirik lagu paint - life (demo)
[verse 1]
the first time i saw your smile
you had just turned 25
you had just started doing time
and i had abolition on my mind
you saw so many die
i could never fathom what that would be like
in a jungle where only the strong survive
time just could never seem to fly
who gets to decide: five years, ten years, or life?
they don’t know you, man, they only know your file
they’ve never felt your smile
[chorus 1]
or even cared to hear you speak ~~
they think they know your mind (and “your kind”)
[verse 2]
the last time i saw your smile
you were 40, still inside
and i just wanted to keep your voice alive:
your story through your eyes
but somehow your words became mine ~~
wasn’t what i’d had in mind
such a wasted institutional pantomime
ironically the crime
[chorus 2]
is that one again your future lies
in a stranger’s hand
one who hasn’t lived your life
and could never understand
[bridge]
you’re still breathing
and i’ve long since died
hoping life would love you on the outside
if that’s where you are today
i guess i’ll never know
watching you survive
it helped me see
how to live a life of harmony
[chorus 3]
even if the cards are stacked against me
[outro]
i wish you peace
i wish you peace
