Lifeboats (Freestyle)

And it all falls down, yeah

And it all falls down again

And it all falls down, yeah

And it all falls down

How can you learn how to swim before you get in?

Sometimes you got to take the plunge just to get in

Life's not full of shallow ends, your house ain't full of armbands

Stay afloat, someone might put their arm out to help you

I don't know, I would, if I saw somebody drowning

In a sea of self-confusion

I wanna be the one to try and understand why their tide ain't comin' in

And their lighthouse ain't shinin'

So why do we all fall down

If there's a reason we can stay afloat?

Why do we watch them drown?

We're too selfish in the lifeboats

Why do we all fall down

If there's a reason we can stay afloat?

Why do we watch them drown? Yeah, uh

So why are all the richest stayin' afloat?

Seen all my brothers drownin', even though they nicked the boat

Mothership ain't helpin' anyone

See, the ships are gettin' bigger, full of greed and wasteful men

Soaking kids with their lies before they even got to ten

Sailin' the internet waves, a tsunami of wires

A flood to take us under if you can't afford the lifejackets

Majority don't even have the lifejacket

Majority might fall where the tax brackets

The minority might jump to the next bracket

On the form to sign up for a raft and a pay packet

With the same old unemployed age bracket

Even money sinks to the bottom when it's waterlogged, so

Nobody truly stays afloat

So why do we all fall down

If there's a reason we can stay afloat?

Why do we watch them drown?

We're too selfish in the lifeboats

Why do we all fall down

If there's a reason we can stay afloat?

Why do we watch them drown, yeah?

And it all falls down, yeah

And it all falls down again

And it all falls down, yeah

And it all falls down
