[Verse 1] Concrete cracks under a heavy boot The map I drew is losing every root I check the news, the screen is shaking glass Watching the years like water through the grass These kids don't know the cost of what they break Just buying trouble with the mess they make [Chorus] Yeah, the foundation is shifting underneath We’re pulling out the old iron from the teeth The bill comes due, it’s sitting on my plate Just an old man left to clean up all the hate The world is sour, the ceiling’s caving in And we’re the ones who pay for all their sin [Verse 2] I remember when a promise held some weight Now it’s just noise outside the iron gate They want the crown before they learn to fight Turning the morning blind into the night I reach for tools that don’t fit anymore While they keep pounding on a locked-up door [Chorus] Yeah, the foundation is shifting underneath We’re pulling out the old iron from the teeth The bill comes due, it’s sitting on my plate Just an old man left to clean up all the hate The world is sour, the ceiling’s caving in And we’re the ones who pay for all their sin [Outro] Yeah, just watching it fall Paying for it all Every brick, every wall It’s our turn to stall [Instrumental Outro with DJ Scratches]
