5 Cent Deposit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
something I figured out yesterday
all the lies in your face
in all the things you embrace
thought by now that I would learn
and not have my world overturned
fills me up inside with disdain
all the lies in your face
in all the things you embrace
thought by now that I would learn
and not have my world overturned
