The Wheat and the Tares

[Intro] Came with the drums like a musicologist A world where the chaff overrules the quality Tares in the field; the entire family of weeds Competing with the seeds that feed humanity [Chorus] Oh, the wheat that remained wheat Not the one among the tares, where the shame sleeps To those who survived, here's your song The real has been off The lies been on Oh, the wheat that remained wheat Not the one among the tares, where the shame sleeps To those who survived, here's your song The real has been off The lies been on [Verse 1] Every tale was tall Everyone wore a mask Every pair was a Paul Everyone was a "Tash Nobody went to work, yet everyone had a job Nobody had the answers, yet everyone had a blog No one owned a thing, yet everybody had it all Nobody was broke, yet everyone was robbed You won't understand if you didn't make it out And I only know one way to say it now [Chorus] Oh, the wheat that remained wheat Not the one among the tares, where the shame sleeps To those who survived, here's your song The real has been off The lies been on Oh, the wheat that remained wheat Not the one among the tares, where the shame sleeps To those who survived, here's your song The real has been off The lies been on [Verse 2] My entire environment was growing tired of me People who admired me were getting tired of me I was running out of steam, feeling powerless Shower was my last place of privacy I did not have the option to not believe And I would not have wanted a softer leave No other options What a relief But you would have to be there to see [Chorus] Oh, the wheat that remained wheat Not the one among the tares, where the shame sleeps To those who survived, here's your song The real has been off The lies been on Oh, the wheat that remained wheat Not the one among the tares, where the shame sleeps To those who survived, here's your song The real has been off The lies been on
