the kingdom is within you

David Le'aupepe / Donnie Borzestowski / jung kim / Max Dunn / Tom Hobden

When the foreman came
He helped me understand
That my destiny was
Mortar in the almighty's hand
Then they shipped my ass
And they worked me place to place
Then delivered me
To the combines as ward of the state

Come find me
I'm here today but don't belong
I'm working till the debt is gone
The upside of it
The upside of it
But in a most familiar way
I'm begging you to understand
I try to be a decent man
The upside of it
The upside of it

Night work shattered me with overtime
And they fined me
White kids say they sympathize
But they're afraid to look me in the eyes

Up up up up up in the sky some place
I got treasures up in heaven
And the state just takes the rest

I been working at the sawmill down in Kinleith
For sometime
I gonna save for my own furniture and kitchen
Down the line
But they make it hard to pay for things
Outside of cigarettes
Mm - it's just jobs we're in
Well alright then
And amen

Come find me!
I'm here today but don't belong
I'm working'till the debt is gone
The upside of it
The upside of it
And in a most familiar way
I'm begging you to understand
I try to be a decent man
The upside of it
The upside of it

In the unrelieved serenity back home
I wonder how they talk of me
Do Isend the card with mountains on?
Or the one with all the riot police?
I don't open doors for the uniform
Skulking shadows
That break in at the dawn time
To haul us away
Do you know how it feels?
I can recite every
Libel and terrible thing I get
'Cause I built this place

Alrighty!
I'm here until I don't belong
I'm working till the debt is gone
The upside of it
The upside of it
And in a most familiar way
I'm begging you to understand
I try to be a decent man
The upside of it
The upside of it

The upside of it
The upside of it
