GIFT
Sometimes I make myself cry...
We both know it's true
While other guys might lie...
I try to swallow my pride
It's a gift
It's a gift I give to you
Everybody dances for money
I dance for free
Everybody dances for money
I dance for free
Everybody's a slave to do something
I work for humanity
Everybody's got something to sell you
Is what they've been telling me
Everybody's got something to sell you
Is what they've been telling me
I stopped falling for advertisements
Once I bought into poverty
(Oh...come on boy!)
You don't care about the name you wear
When you don't have enough to eat
You don't care about the name you wear
When you don't have enough to eat
Lace and frills lead to unpaid bills
No electricity, water and heat
Once you have everything in life
There's nothing left to do but give
Once you have everything in life
There's nothing left to do but give
Just free yourself from this rat race
And say that you've lived
Sometimes I make myself cry...
We both know it's true
While other guys might lie...
I try to swallow my pride
It's a gift
It's a gift I give to you
