Takes away from you
It's up to you to take it back"
This City... by Fariq
Awake, and barely breathing
Alone as I shudder
I'm alone
I'm not thinking
My life before me
Has been set
For me my destiny
Before my first breath
Because...
This city...
This city it takes and it takes
And it never gives back
This...
This city...
It's all I ever wanted
And all I want to throw back
How can we live
The way we do
Our lives just lived
Our fates the same
We just take what we need
Our lives the same
Towards the end
Will we repent?
Does it make a difference
That we're all just the same
With hopes and fears
And people so dear
When
This city...
This city was never meant for me
This ground that I step on
You're nothing to me
This...
This city...
Takes all that I am
But nobody cares
I'm not alone
It'll never be fair
'Cause nobody cares for me
But I'll stay to fight
Fight for those who are just like me
Take back the things and set ourselves free
This city...
Takes and it takes
My perennial destiny
This...
This city...
Will burn to the ground
I'm taking everything back
I'm taking everything back
For me
