Walking down the street and I see your faces Just trying to find a way in my places I swear I just don't know Which way that I should go Sometimes I think that I just can't stand it Feels like I dropped it from another planet This world has so much madness Disguising eyes of sadness Truth is lost upon the masses People wear sunglasses in the dark Eyes is running through their veins But I ain't taking novocaine for my heart Why it gotta be like that? Why it gotta be? Why it gotta be like that? I just can't help but question why Somebody tell me why it gotta be like that? Why it gotta be? Why it gotta be like that? Some dreams will live and some will die So many live in mental poverty While they watch the cold reality Their spirits going blind A vacant state of mind Next time that people open up their eyes This revolution will be televised I got to find a way Upgrade it every day Truth is lost upon the masses People wear sunglasses in the dark Eyes is running through their veins But I ain't taking novocaine for my heart Why it gotta be like that? Why it gotta be? Why it gotta be like that? I just can't help but question why Somebody tell me why it gotta be like that? Why it gotta be? Why it gotta be like that? Some dreams will live and some will die Truth is lost upon the masses People wear sunglasses in the dark Eyes is running through their veins But I ain't taking novocaine for my heart Why it gotta be like that? Why it gotta be? Why it gotta be like that? I just can't help but question why Somebody tell me why it gotta be like that? Why it gotta be? Why it gotta be like that? Some dreams will live and some will die Oh, oh
