Does The Lion City Still Roar?

by Less Than Jake· from Gnv Fla

I'll keep my faith alive Cause this is paradise for parasites I can't believe my eyes Streets full of blank faces and junkie eyes The streets won't sleep tonight A lullaby for the half alive The city swings and whines To the double crime of the drugs and hard time Lion city's sirens sing the night away The city feels like a cage, feels like a powderkey That's almost set to explode Lion city's begun to rot It's a matter of time until the roaring stops The scene from the ground up From the painted walls to the rooftops Lion city's closed and locked While the pop of feet crack on side walks The haves and the have nots Fade to backdrops of drums and gunshots Lion city's sirens sing the night away There's an overdose on 8th And he does the cocaine shake The city seems like it's trapped between its future and its past Life or death of a city not coming back The city feels like a cage, feels like a powderkey And now it's gonna explode Lion city's sirens sings the night away There's an overdose on 8th And he's wearing a blue face Cause the Lion city's siren sings the night away And I won't belong
