Beggars
Lyricist:Edward Carrington Breckenridge, James Riley Breckenridge, Dustin Michael Kensrue, Teppei Teranishi
All you great men of power, you who boast of your feats Politicians and entrepreneurs Can you safe guard your breath in the night while you sleep Keep your heart beating steady and sure
As you lie in your bed Does the thought haunt your head That you're really rather small?
If there's one thing I know in this life We are beggars all
All you champions of science and rulers of men Can you summon the sun from it's sleep? Does the earth seek your council on how fast to spin? Can you shut up the gates of the deep?
Don't you know that all things Hang as if on a string over darkness Poised to fall? Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
If there's one thing I know in this life We are beggars all
All you big shots who swagger, stride with conceit Did you devise how your frame would be formed? If you'd be raised in a palace or left out on the streets Choose the place or the hour you'd be born
Tell me what can you claim Not a thing, not your name Tell me if you can recall just one thing Not a gift in this life
Can you hear what's been said? Can you see now that Everything's grace after all?
If there's one thing I know in this life We are beggars all
