When I heard, no I wasn't surprised Could've said it was a long time coming Now you beg for some, compromise And you're offering nothing And by now, you must understand Making due with what I've been given Read the past on the palm of my hand A few chapters, I think that you're missin' So I'm wondering Where can we go now And I'm wondering Where can we go now When I heard no, I wasn't surprised Shadows long and the pain gets numbin' Years ago, you left me behind And left the place gutted And lined up, you stand and command Streets lined with satellite dishes I, skin my knees and I cut my hands Got a pulse but there's a few beats missing So I'm wondering Where can we go now And I'm wondering Where can we go now I run from the past but it's gaining on me I thought we made a deal, you were crossing your fingers So I'm wondering Where can we go now The rules came from your daddy's daddy They were, grandfathered in You forgot pretty fast, 'cuz you act like the past didn't happen And so you, empty out your pockets And you said, all the money's been spent And you don't come around, to this part of town till it's burning Man, what did you expect? You made some promises that need to be kept Now I feel like I've been here before I'm sitting on the bus, now I'm lost and alone I feel the pain, it's a highway away Another city in flames, in flames, in flames So I'm wondering Where can we go now And I'm wondering Where can we go now I run from the past but it's gaining on me I thought, we made a deal, you were crossing your fingers So I'm struggling With this weight that's been passed down
