If You Wanna Steal (You Better Learn How to Lie)

My father Michael is a genius

He sees this world the way no one can

He brought me up and he shaped my mind at the tender youthful age of 9

He said don't take this for the way it is

You better watch out son when you give in

Before you know it the friends you trust will have stabbed you in the back he said

If you wanna steal you better learn how to lie

If you wanna live you better not fear how you die

Heaven and hell are just a myth so you better pay attention to this moment

(2x)

The fine line between genius and insanity

Is one he often treads so patiently

While pigs and bulls will always try to lock the door

A system built to perpetuate

Pushers pushin', dealers dealin' with they can't escape

I got kids and homes to protect

There's no living in this wage that they have set

If you wanna steal you better learn how to lie

If you wanna live you better not fear how you die

Heaven and hell are just a myth so you better pay attention to this moment

(2x)

Sometimes when my apathy creeps on up from behind me

It reminds me why I moved my TV

Out of the room where I make love

In case I might just look up

And see the sky is falling from above, see it falling from above

If you wanna steal you better learn how to lie

If you wanna live you better not fear how you die

Heaven and hell are just a myth so you better pay attention to this moment

(3x)

Oh yeah!
