Disgusted

[Verse 1]
They passed the table where the hungry sat
Shoes worth a thousand, they didn't look back
The child on the corner, eyes wide and dry
Got used to the luxury cars passing by
We wrote our names on every door
But the ink dried up before they saw
Invisible ink on invisible hands
Nobody reads what nobody plans

[Chorus]
And I'm disgusted
Not with fire, not with rage
Just a tired kind of knowing
That we've been left off every page
I'm disgusted
But I've run out of tears to cry
When the rich eat full and sleep full
And nobody asks us why

[Verse 2]
They build the towers with our broken backs
Then close the gates and never look back
The speech was long, the promise was bright
But promises don't feed a child at night
I watched a man drop coins in a bowl
Like mercy was something you bought for your soul
One coin for guilt, one smile for the crowd
The poor still starved but the giving was loud

[Bridge]
I used to believe that someone would come
That justice was slow but it wasn't done
Now I sit with the silence and let it be
Because hope is expensive for people like me
We are not a cause, we are not a trend
We are the beginning nobody saw
And the end

[Chorus]
And I'm disgusted
Not with fire, not with rage
Just a tired kind of knowing
That we've been left off every page
I'm disgusted
But I've run out of tears to cry
When the rich eat full and sleep full
And nobody asks us why

[Outro]
We knocked, and they looked away
We called, and they had nothing to say
Not angry anymore
Just tired of the door
