Sleep Outside
Sleep Outside: A Poignant Anthem on Economic Struggles
Lyrics
I went to pay the rent just the other day
I recently attempted to pay my rent.
no I just can't believe what the landlord said
I'm shocked by what the landlord conveyed.
he said ""you know you can't stay much longer...
The landlord mentioned that my stay is not allowed for much longer.
you'll have to sleep outside""
I'll be forced to sleep outdoors.
well, back in the 80s everything was good
In the 80s, everything was positive.
I had the hope for the future like a young boy should
I had hopeful aspirations for the future like any young boy.
But now it seems those dreams are over
Now, those dreams seem to be shattered.
We're gonna pay the price
We will bear the consequences of our actions.
State of a nation calling!
The condition of the nation is demanding attention.
State of a nation falling down
The nation is deteriorating.
All around my eyes
Anxiety and deterioration are visible all around me.
Faced that I can't pay the rent
I'm confronted with the inability to pay rent.
So I gotta pitch a tent
To cope, I must set up a tent for shelter.
Now I sleep outside
As a result, I find myself sleeping outdoors.
Back in the 80s everything was good
In the 80s, everything was positive.
I had the hope for the future like a young boy should
I had hopeful aspirations for the future like any young boy.
But now it seems those dreams are over
Now, those dreams seem to be shattered.
We're gonna pay the price
We will bear the consequences of our actions.
For the greedy sins of a rich old man
The sins of a wealthy old man are causing harm.
Making love to the profits of a wasted land
Profits from a wasted land are prioritized over genuine well-being.
I hope his days are numbered
I wish for a limited duration of prosperity for the rich old man.
Even if we have to fight
Even if it requires a fight, justice should prevail.
It’s a state of a nation calling!
The nation is in a critical state, demanding attention.
State of a nation falling down
The nation is deteriorating.
All around my eyes
Anxiety and deterioration are visible all around me.
Faced, that I can't pay the rent
I'm confronted with the inability to pay rent.
So I gotta pitch a tent
To cope, I must set up a tent for shelter.
Now I sleep outside
As a result, I find myself sleeping outdoors.
Yeah I sleep outside
Yes, I am indeed sleeping outside.
Don't you know I sleep outside
Emphasizing the hardship of sleeping outdoors.
