Could've said it was a long time coming
Now you beg for some, compromise
And you're offering nothing
And by now, you must understand
Making due with what I've been given
Read the past on the palm of my hand
A few chapters, I think that you're missin'
So I'm wondering
Where can we go now
And I'm wondering
Where can we go now
When I heard no, I wasn't surprised
Shadows long and the pain gets numbin'
Years ago, you left me behind
And left the place gutted
And lined up, you stand and command
Streets lined with satellite dishes
I, skin my knees and I cut my hands
Got a pulse but there's a few beats missing
So I'm wondering
Where can we go now
And I'm wondering
Where can we go now
I run from the past but it's gaining on me
I thought we made a deal, you were crossing your fingers
So I'm wondering
Where can we go now
The rules came from your daddy's daddy
They were, grandfathered in
You forgot pretty fast, 'cuz you act like the past didn't happen
And so you, empty out your pockets
And you said, all the money's been spent
Now you don't come around, to this part of town till it's burning
Man, what did you expect?
You made some promises that need to be kept
Now I feel like I've been here before
I'm sitting on the bus, now I'm lost and alone
I feel the pain, it's a highway away
Another city in flames, in flames, in flames
So I'm wondering
Where can we go now
And I'm wondering
Where can we go now
I run from the past but it's gaining on me
I thought, we made a deal, you were crossing your fingers
So I'm struggling
With this weight that's been passed down
When I heard, no I wasn't surprised Could've said it was a long time coming Now you beg for some, compromise And you're offering nothing And by now, you must understand Making due with what I've been given Read the past on the palm of my hand A few chapters, I think that you're missin' So I'm wondering Where can we go now And I'm wondering Where can we go now When I heard no, I wasn't surprised Shadows long and the pain gets numbin' Years ago, you left me behind And left the place gutted And lined up, you stand and command Streets lined with satellite dishes I, skin my knees and I cut my hands Got a pulse but there's a few beats missing So I'm wondering Where can we go now And I'm wondering Where can we go now I run from the past but it's gaining on me I thought we made a deal, you were crossing your fingers So I'm wondering Where can we go now The rules came from your daddy's daddy They were, grandfathered in You forgot pretty fast, 'cuz you act like the past didn't happen And so you, empty out your pockets And you said, all the money's been spent Now you don't come around, to this part of town till it's burning Man, what did you expect?
