Tekst piosenki
If you are
Listening to this
Like right now, if you're listening to this
I need you to close your eyes
And I'm not just saying that figuratively
I need you to literately close your eyes
I'd like to welcome you all
To the city of cold
Now could you try and just imagine waking up to a planet
Where education's too expensive, so you can't understand it?
Tryna wipe away the tears where all the pain cannot be bandaged
Plus you don't know if you eat today and gain an advantage
You see the droughts always make it tough, clouds do not rain enough
And as a child you're left there scared and wondering which way is up
Walking 20 miles in the blistering cold
Just for a bucket of some water for your family at home
But when you get back, your family's nowhere in sight
You ask around if anybody's seen or heard from them, right?
But every person that you ask has no idea and despite
Your every effort that you make, you haven't seen them tonight
That's when you're hyperventilating, and you're smothered in fear
But then your family returns home without your mother in tears
You say, "Daddy, where's Mommy? What if she's all alone?"
He says, "Mommy died today from dehydration at home."
Damn I wish I had a bite to eat
I'll bury the rest of my family
And I got no fight, left in me
Won't you put a blanket over me?
So when the going gets tough, and the tough gets going
Just play this song, and you'll keep on going
In the city of cold, the city of cold
The city of cold
They never sleep in the city of cold
You fall to the ground, you're losing all hope
And you feel like you've just had enough
Then you just gotta take it on the chin, and fix your bottom lip
Cause there's no way that Imma let you give up
Now could you try and just imagine waking up to a vision
Where your kids are always starving, so you're scared to admit it
'Cause you're a Mother, and that means that you're obliged, to provide
For yourself, and for your kids, so you strive to survive
But you can't, and as a parent, now you feel like you have failed
To give your children the necessities, they need to prevail
So you deprive yourself of food, and even water for a couple
Days or even weeks, so you can save them from the struggle
And one specific morning, you just feel like it's the end
But you don't want your child to see you in this state, so you pretend
Like everything is still okay, but it's not
So you send your little boy to get some water for your family of 10
And when he's back, he yells repeatedly for Mommy, but instead
He left to face the news about her passing out and now she's dead
See, you may not see that you're lucky, it's true
So be appreciative cause someone else would love to be you
I just I wish I had a bite to eat
I'll bury the rest of my family
And I got no fight, left in me
Won't you put a blanket over me?
So when the going gets tough, and the tough gets going
Just play this song, and you'll keep on going
In the city of cold, the city of cold
The city of cold
They never sleep in the city of cold
Damn I wish I had a bite to eat (I wish I had a bite to eat)
I'll bury the rest of my family (whoa)
And I got no fight, left in me (no fight, left in me)
Won't you put a blanket over me?
So when the going gets tough, and the tough gets going
Just play this song, and you'll keep on going
In the city of cold, the city of cold (hey)
The city of cold (hey)
They never sleep in the city of cold
Cause damn I wish I had a bite to eat
I'll bury the rest of my family (whoa)
And I got no fight, left in me (no no)
Won't you put a blanket over me?
So when the going gets tough, and the tough gets going
Just play this song, and you'll keep on going
In the city of cold, the city of cold
The city of cold
They never sleep in the city of cold
