Lyrics
Man, have you ever really wondered Like why are we here? What the meaning to all of this? Sometimes life can keep you down, with your face all in the dirt (Hallelujah) Now if you feel that left behind, need to get up and go to church (Hallelujah) Ooh (Hallelujah) Ooh (Hallelujah) Big, slide into the mode, time to drop a load My life is going downhill like some cardboard in the snow My bank account is frozen I don't think that I can get out this hole Feel like the figure four leg lock Like the jury went away and then they came back deadlocked I can't move, I can't eat, I can't even breathe Can't even buy a decent sack without the stems and the seeds No trees, no P's to ease the stress of everyday living But homeless people gotta suck it up wherever they living The unforgiven or the unwilling, live a life of sinning And expect to be as pure as an infant in the beginning (But, what about repentance?) What about detention? What about you eating dinner in the devil's kitchen? (What about repentance?) What about committing the same sin Over and over again and again and again Why are we here? (Huh? Huh? Huh?) Please tell me, what are we here for? Life, is nothing but a dream, so peaceful and serene Unless you're being evil then you on the devil's team Well I receive what you want to believe But soon you'll have to sew those bad seeds Please, any man can ask, to get a pass Or a cleansing of sin to grant another chance Perhaps another glance of the light at the end of the tunnel Talk to the coach or break out the huddle Whatever should you fumble your rebuttal should be subtle Because he who lives in the upper room is never gullible As you survey the syllables and sentences The question that I'm merely trying to pose is as simple as me saying (What about repentance?) What about detention? What about you eating dinner in the devil's kitchen? (But what about repentance?) What about committing the same sin Over and over again and again and again Sometimes life can keep you down, with your face all in the dirt Now if you feel that left behind, need to get up and go to church Ooh Ooh Why are we here? (Huh? Huh? Huh?) Please tell me, what are we here for? Yeah, know what I mean Do you know what I mean? Clap your hands Stomp your feet
