Lyrics

Poem Daddy

Hello

Yeah, I can speak quietly

Depression is worse than the grave

Better to die for a noble cause

Than to live and die a slave

Listen to those who struck gold

Depression is worse than the grave

Better to die for a noble cause

Than to live and die a slave

Listen to those who struck gold

Depression is worse than the grave

Better to die for a noble cause

Than to live and die a slave
