Far away from the lands of men Basking in a cage where the sun has sank Ache in my stomach from the lies of friend A friend that moulds wealth in sand You had told me to be free in this place Like the chains are made from plastic wraps Yo' beautiful lies of hope are like wind to my face They just blow to erode what I thought I buried depth I am lost deep in a changing maze And the is no sign of an exit gate Nor Mandela conquer this long of way I surrender and I accept my pensive fate So long as the stars brighten the night, Tomorrow shall be a day for another fight

Steps In Astray
Far away from the lands of men Basking in a cage where the sun has sank Ache in my stomach from the lies of friend A friend that moulds wealth in sand You had told me to be free in this place Like the chains are made from plastic wraps Yo' beautiful lies of hope are like wind to my face They just blow to erode what I thought I buried depth I am lost deep in a changing maze And the is no sign of an exit gate Nor Mandela conquer this long of way I surrender and I accept my pensive fate So long as the stars brighten the night, Tomorrow shall be a day for another fight
