Persisting Problems Letra

Why did it come to this on the list

It's like a cat on the prowl just waiting to take us down
It wraps it's evil arms around you strangles you, brings you down
Makes you strive to do good that you shouldn't have to

Chorus

Now I'm sucking up anyway
This list it kept me from my passion
It's a do or die situation
Do it now or be silent... for what seems like an eternity

Chorus

It's a struggle to stay on top
Swimming through an ocean full of drying concrete
I see the visions of better days when I was free
The list does good from their side what about ours?

Now I'm stuck saying sorry for nothing
I got people on my back to get things done
When will they realize that they haven't been through this
No one's in the same boat as me

Chorus

I don't want to hear what you have to say
It's always the same anyway
I wish you could help
But this list is my problem

The man of power isn't helping the situation
I wish I could just take him out of the picture
Soon it will end... so soon
I hope I can hold out long enough
