Lyrics
KUDOS
“All this could be yours…” So the billboards say
“Status and big rewards are bound to come your way…”
“You’re gonna reap just what you sow…” (x2)
“All this could be yours… security and fame
You’ll get what’s rightly yours - if you only play the game…”
“You’re gonna reap just what you sow… one day…”
“You’re gonna reap just what you sow…” So they say…
But they lie
You could die tomorrow
With nothing but your plans
And empty hands
Not this man…
All this could be yours any time now soon - kudos and open doors -
If you dance to your own tune
‘Cos those who slide… they’re all tied inside
The freedom they stifle will rebel
They’re in hell… can’t you tell?
You’re gonna reap just what you sow… I know (x3)
And they’re gonna give back what they stole… I know
