Generate meaning
1
People say it doesn't exist
2
'Cause no one would like to admit
3
That there is a city underground
4
Where people live everyday
5
Off the waste and decay
6
Off the discards of their fellow man
7
Here in subcity life is hard
8
We can't receive any government relief
9
I'd like to give Mr. President my honest regards
10
For disregarding me
11
They say there's too much crime in these city streets
12
My sentiments exactly
13
Government and big business hold the purse strings
14
When I worked I worked in the factories
15
I'm at the mercy of the world
16
I guess I'm lucky to be alive
17
They say we've fallen through the cracks
18
They say the system works
19
But we won't let it
20
Help
21
I guess they never stop to think
22
We might not just want handouts
23
But a way to make an honest living
24
Living this ain't living
25
What did I do to deserve this
26
Had my trust in god
27
Worked everyday of my life
28
Thought I had some guarantees
29
That's what I thought
30
At least that's what I thought
31
Last night I had another restless sleep
32
Wondering what tomorrow might bring
33
Last night I dreamed
34
A cold blue light was shining down on me
35
I screamed myself awake
36
Thought I must be dying
37
Thought I must be dying
38
