SocraSational

So, I posted these lyrics a while ago and finally have an update! Here's the whole shebang

-
Socrates was never made a fool, even when he died
As the poison took a hold inside, we were made the fool
Pay the debt, pay it fast, don't you hold the lie
Death is coming can you last or are you gonna cry
We always fail to heed the voice inside, crying out our names
Forever say that we will not be tamed, blaming all in pride
Long we be the child running entertaining Cain
Death is coming can we last or are we gonna cry

We live through our years, we cry in our fears, we're never clear about what we hold dear
A century is all that we're given, all of us driven, unique we think that we ought be forgiven
Nigh is the time to learn a lesson or two, stand from your pew and stop pretending you knew
That every generation sows the seeds of our fathers, we're headlong to a cliff that we're destined avoir

Socrates was never made a fool, even when he died
As the poison took a hold inside, we were made the fool
Pay the debt, pay it fast, don't you hold the lie
Death is coming can you last or are you gonna cry
We always fail to heed the voice inside, crying out our names
Forever say that we will not be tamed, blaming all in pride
Long we be the child running entertaining Cain
Death is coming can we last or are we gonna cry

Nigh is the time of your discontent, your sycophantic precepts misrepresent laments
You say that you care, but you just sit and stare, excuses stumble our of you for all the world to bear
Even Thrasymachus advocate for thoughts among us served to set us up the truth however hard he tried to boost
His own ideals became the message he revealed, one that resonates, reverberates and guarantees fear
"Why give it up, when you can have it all?" The salesmen says as he addresses your balls
Just sign the dotted line and you'll be dining with swine, forever always swearing, "I just wanted to shine!"

Socrates was never made a fool, even when he died
As the poison took a hold inside, we were made the fool
Pay the debt, pay it fast, don't you hold the lie
Death is coming can you last or are you gonna cry
We always fail to heed the voice inside, crying out our names
Forever say that we will not be tamed, blaming all in pride
Long we be the child running entertaining Cain
Death is coming can we last or are we gonna cry
