R is for Rhetoric

lyrics

Give yourself a minute to listen
Take another moment to learn
Realize what you’ve been given
Is nothing close to what's being churned

You don't have to smile when they tell you
Or walk a mile in their shoes
Just step back from the ledge now (baby)
Give yourself a lifetime to chose

Learn how to talk
Before you can walk
They got that child in their eyes

Eyes that are black
No turning back
Rhetoric's on high

You think we woulda learned from the last time
Instead we just stare at our hands
Poisoned by the fruits of the liars
Blindly following all their commands

You don't have to smile when they tell you
Or walk a mile in their shoes
Just step back from the ledge now (baby)
Give yourself a lifetime to chose

Learn how to talk
Before you can walk
They got that child in their eyes

Eyes that are black
No turning back
Rhetoric's on high
