Lyrics

0:09Good times and bad
0:14Seen them both
0:18Hope fly out the window
0:23Fortune walk through the door
0:28Learned not to believe
0:32This is as good as it gets
0:35Because we ain't seen nothing yet
0:47Hands untied
0:51But the same shuffle once again
0:56Running all the time
1:01Ain't going nowhere
1:05Its a new page in the same book
1:15Its a new game with the same rules
1:24The lights go down
1:28Fade to black on the set
1:31And we ain't seen nothing yet
1:43Saddled with bonds
1:47Broken and in disrepair
1:52Forty acres to a forty ounce
1:57Don't seem fair
2:02The sirens rise and wail
2:05Shadowed by libertys torch
2:11As the boats that brought us over
2:15Are slowly sinking off the shore
2:18And we ain't seen nothing yet
2:29This life a crime
2:34A blessing and a curse
2:39Chosen and unwanted
2:44Displaced and usurped
2:48Id run away
2:52there But is nowhere to go
2:57So Ill stand and fight
2:59And hope and pray
3:02That the best is yet to come
3:05And we ain't seen nothing yet
Good times and bad
Seen them both
Hope fly out the window
Fortune walk through the door
Learned not to believe
This is as good as it gets
Because we ain't seen nothing yet
Hands untied
But the same shuffle once again
Running all the time
Ain't going nowhere
Its a new page in the same book
Its a new game with the same rules
The lights go down
Fade to black on the set
And we ain't seen nothing yet
Saddled with bonds
Broken and in disrepair
Forty acres to a forty ounce
Don't seem fair
The sirens rise and wail
Shadowed by libertys torch
As the boats that brought us over
Are slowly sinking off the shore
And we ain't seen nothing yet
This life a crime
A blessing and a curse
Chosen and unwanted
Displaced and usurped
Id run away
there But is nowhere to go
So Ill stand and fight
And hope and pray
That the best is yet to come
And we ain't seen nothing yet
