Tribes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Would you understand the problems that we face you down inside?
Obey this set of rules and use them as a scripture for your life
You, you will be grateful too
Should we spend time
Under the night
Until we fly
Gotta get a leader to decide
I deserve better because I've had better earnings from the start
Will you understand it's value and not what is in your heart
And I, I would be grateful too
Should we spend time
Under the night
Until we fly
Gotta get a leader to decide
I take because I never understood your mortal folk's request
I get because for us, life is just another bloody test
And we, we are so grateful too, ooh
Should we spend time
Under the night
Until we fly
Gotta get a leader to decide
Would you understand the problems that we face you down inside?
Obey this set of rules and use them as a scripture for your life
And I, I would be grateful too
