letra de cuts both ways - mr gee poet

[mr gee]

the sword of damocles cuts deeply, taking your life away
showing the price you pay, rolling the dice today
knowing the time of play decreases with ease
roll out the barrel even petrol tanks need to breathe

exhale new years eve with a collective disease
play the january blues that the bank balances grieve
trying to hold down a job is like a pod does a pea
i can’t afford to be sick so just watch where you sneeze

now the lock blocks the key, the clock’s mocking me
it points to an open road but its the potholes i see

stop snitching is the word that they preach in the street
but then the innocent get hurt while the guilty go free
am i still cotton picking with exotic st-tching
or do i get lost in the prison of forgotten living

that’s tantalizing – gangster fantasizing
so my frantic eyes are blinded by desire when
my happiness lies in someone else’s worth
put a mirror to my eyes and invite the curse

i was given this life to uplift the earth
not to fight and die for someone else’s turf

cuts from the government, i’m bound to condemn them
cuts from my brothers, well i’ll never defend them
to get sliced both ways from above and below
left stuck in the maze with nowhere to go

for each new year i hope for new cheer
i look with new eyes and listen with new ears
i sit down to drive and say a few prayers
i rev up the engine and start in a new gear

[break]

cuts from the government, i’m bound to condemn them
cuts from my brothers, well i’ll never defend them
to get sliced both ways from above and below
left stuck in the maze with nowhere to go

for each new year i hope for new cheer
i look with new eyes and listen with new ears
i sit down to drive and say a few prayers
i rev up the engine and start in a new gear
