Down Where We Belong
Unveiling the Depths: A Reflection on Human Struggles and Triumphs
Lyrics
There are two types of men on our mother earth
There are two categories of men on Earth
Some have all the luck some just live in dirt
Some are fortunate while others live in poverty
There are several types of the color of the skin
There are various skin colors
But what's crucial is to lose or win
Success or failure is what truly matters
You feel so alive where the eagles cry
Feeling vibrant where eagles soar
And you feel so strong on a mountain high
Feeling powerful at great heights
But in fact you are at his bottom just
Despite feeling high, one is actually at the bottom
His unattainable top seems to be a must
The top seems unattainable but desirable
We will stay down
Committing to staying in a lower position
Down where we belong
Content with being where one belongs
And the rain keeps knocking on our mother earth
Continuous hardship on Earth
And the snow keeps falling is it really worth
Questioning the worth of enduring hardships
To live through this ache and to die at last
Questioning the purpose of life's suffering and eventual death
When you're predestined and the die is cast
Feeling destined with fate already decided
Our thoughts are fading in a time that melts
Thoughts fading in a changing era
Our flesh is fading as we've always felt
Physical deterioration as always expected
But we kid ourselves to meet heaven's feast
Deceiving oneself to aspire for heavenly rewards
To rise up to god and to be released
Aspiring to ascend to God and be liberated
We will stay down
Choosing to remain in a lower state
Down where we belong
Being comfortable in one's place of belonging
You belong to us to the human scrap
Belonging to the disregarded in society
Which will never win and succumbs in traps
Predicting perpetual failure for this group
That are set by others with deceitfulness
Traps set by others with deceit
And you stumble into with thankfulness
Falling into traps with gratitude
No one knows if we are to survive the storm
Uncertainty about survival amidst difficulties
But I tell you man you are just a worm
Reducing oneself to insignificance
Just a little error on a hopeless crust
Being a small error in an unforgiving environment
You are sleazy man and your limbs will rust
Being of low integrity and destined for decay
We will stay down
Choosing to remain in a lower position
Down where we belong.
Accepting the place where one belongs
