Lyrics
We live in hope of love
We hold onto the expectation of love.
And wait to die
We endure life while anticipating death.
And sadness all around us
Sadness surrounds us, waiting for expressions of grief.
Waits for crying
This sadness anticipates tears.
And feelings
Emotions that were once significant.
That once meant so much
These emotions are abandoned and left to wither.
Are left to dry and trun to dust
Left to dry and transform into dust.
And ashes
Transforming into ashes.
We learn to wheel and deal
We learn to navigate life's challenges and bid farewell.
And say goodbye
Madness surrounds us, contributing to our demise.
And madness all around us
This madness results in death.
Makes for dyin'
Deceptive actions in youth lead to aging.
Young deceivers soon turn old
The deceived age and face death amid their wealth.
And loft to die amongst their gold
They choose to die surrounded by their riches.
And cash it
Converting their wealth into cash.
Give it up or me live just to die
Consider giving up, as life may merely lead to death.
Give it up (Give it up)
Expressing the need to relinquish something.
Give it up, give yourself time
Offering a chance for self-reflection and healing.
(Give it up)
Reiterating the suggestion to let go.
Give it up, save yourself
Suggesting to surrender for personal preservation.
Give it up
Repeating the advice to give it up.
(Give it up)
Emphasizing the recommendation to let go.
Give it up
Repeating the idea of surrendering.
(Give it up)
Continuing the plea to give it up.
We drive a million miles to see the sun
We endure significant hardships to witness hope.
Hoping we are not too late for saving
Hoping that it's not too late to save something valuable.
The Lord will smile on you today
The belief that divine favor can bring love that can be traded.
And give you love that you can trade
This love can be exchanged for material possessions.
For matches and TV and movie stars
Materialistic pursuits like matches, TV, and celebrities.
And driving cars as cashes
And the pursuit of luxury, represented by driving cars, ends in crashes.
Give it up or me live just to die
Consider giving up, as life may merely lead to death.
Give it up (Give it up)
Reiterating the need to surrender something.
Give it up, give yourself time
Offering a chance for self-reflection and healing.
(Give it up)
Reiterating the suggestion to let go.
Give it up, save yourself
Suggesting to surrender for personal preservation.
Give it up
Emphasizing the recommendation to give it up.
(Give it up)
Repeating the advice to let go.
Give it up
Continuing the plea to surrender.
(Give it up)
Repeating the idea of giving it up.
Give it up
Reiterating the plea to give it up.
Give it up
Continuing the plea to surrender.
