(original lyrics by Vince Ewing) - These lyrics below do not include the samples used in the song, but are the words Vince sings: All the wasted youth and all the unwise men couldn't put our city back together again And the parents don't care and the teachers don't care turns these busy streets into the middle of nowhere and the world that you left behind is a burning ball of shit and so your kids are sitting on their hands wondering what to do with it It's so hard to find a silver lining To hold your head high when there ain't nobody smiling and I can't walk down these streets anymore and I've worn out my welcome but I don't know what for Are the times coming to an end or am I just insane? Why does the world seem crazier every day? Why does the world seem crazier every day? We lost ourselves in greed and there ain't no road back home misery has her company yet the artist sleeps alone and the fields have flooded over and paradise is burnin' and we can't ourselves with all the things that we aren't learning And are the times coming to and end or am I just insane? Why does the world seem crazier every day? Why does the world seem crazier every day? We've built our machines and then they ate our dinner We've turned clowns into kings the biggest crown a winner Now the kids can't hardly read or even write a letter I guess the good life on its own can't teach us to be better And are the times coming to an end or am I just insane? Why does the world seem crazier every day? Why does the world seem crazier every day? Why does the world seem crazier every day?
