Getting Out Alive

GETTING OUT ALIVE - Written by Carroll Bryant 

We’ve all become our very own slaves

Always getting jealous of ourselves

Get online just to misbehave

The hate dominates our living hell

Don’t you think that love would be worth our time?

This is something you should carry in the back of your mind

We aint getting out of this alive

Nobody getting off this ride

Beginning or the middle and all the way until the end

You’re stuck in your seat until then

Jump back and slap somebody’s face

Always have to put somebody down

Invading a stranger and their space

I bet your parents have to be so proud

Don’t you think that friendship could ease your mind?

Why do you have to bully all the time?

We aint getting out of this alive

Nobody getting off this ride

Beginning or the middle and all the way until the end

You’re stuck in your seat until then

Because we ain’t getting out of this alive

Nobody getting off this ride

You can think that you can run so go ahead and try

We ain’t getting out of this alive

Reach out your hand with all your heart

To be a friend really isn’t so hard

Just look your fellow man eye to eye

Smile while you can before you die

You know you’re gonna die one day

And to be a better person will be too late

It will be too late

We’re all becoming so much like mud

Always getting trapped by our thoughts

Kindness is the first step towards love

A trap that I would gladly be caught

Don’t you think that love would be worth our time?

This is something you should carry in the back of your mind

In the back of your mind

All of the time

In the back of your mind

We aint getting out of this alive

Nobody getting off this ride

Beginning or the middle and all the way until the end

You’re stuck in your seat until then

Because we ain’t getting out of this alive

Nobody getting off this ride

You can think that you can run so go ahead and try

We ain’t getting out of this alive

No, we aint getting out of this alive

No, aint nobody getting off this ride

Not until the day comes, and when it finally arrives

We aint getting out of this alive
