Welcome to the World

Welcome to the world Hello, I'm the abandoned son I turned my back on everyone Retreating deep into my wandering mind My father left and went his way Religion went on holiday And nothing's really necessary Where broken lives are ordinary When I complain, I hear the people say Welcome to the world Welcome to the world Welcome to the world [Chorus] Welcome to the world where the struggle is real And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow Welcome to the world where dreams come to die And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow Welcome to (Welcome to) Welcome to the world I work each day just like the last Taciturn, iconoclast I got more big words that you don't know Always a sarcastic ring You're never sure just what I mean I dwell within Destruction City A town that has no tears or pity I can almost hear the minions as they sing Welcome to the world Welcome to the world Welcome to the world [Chorus] Welcome to the world where the struggle is real And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow Welcome to the world where dreams come to die And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow Welcome to, welcome to, welcome to the world Welcome to the world where the talk is cheap And the tab is steep and the lies are spoken Welcome to the world, a collective disguise And the wolf cries at your door Welcome to the world where you only have friends If you're means to an end and it's always unspoken Welcome to the world where twinklin' eyes Will despise you at your core Welcome to the world That's always wanting more, more, more [Chorus] Welcome to the world where the struggle is real And you know how it feels to beg, plead or borrow Welcome to the world where dreams come to die And the innocents cry 'cause there ain't no tomorrow Welcome to (Welcome to) Welcome to the world
