City of Ruins ft. Bruce Springsteen

lyrics

rise up...

yeah, i know boss,
that's what i'm saying
but every time i talk with 'em they just stay playing with my head
like, "maybe in a day we'll all be dead so we should live it up,
nuts, while we got paper and our bread.
waking up?
nah, i'll be ignorant instead.
and i'll figure out a way to get some women in my bed
on the weekend i'll be in something you could not get in
cause it costs a couple bucks and you ain't got none of them."
yeah, i know, boss
i tell 'em, "that's right.
it's up to me to save your asses in the black night
luckily i got a couple billion in my band with me
fit to spit fire at the villains so they can't git me
though we ain't out you can't doubt
that we on a path
either towards health or disease for the whole planet
it's so clear, no fear, right here is the road plan:
now you could go and fell trees or you could grow plants."
