Sick Of It All · Yours Truly [2000]
Standing on the top of the world
Standing on the top of the world
Standing on the top of the world
Standing on the top it's a long way down.
It's too easy to feel conceit.
Its too easy to feel elite.
The propaganda that you're fed
Don't think you can count on it
When you judge yourself.
Supremacy means there's no conscience here.
Supremacy means there's no compassion here.
Tradition rules
Despite the rotten truth
Despite the atrophy
Despite the waste and greed
It's too easy to feel conceit.
Its too easy to feel elite.
The propaganda that you're fed
Don't think you can count on it
When you judge yourself.
It's a risky thought reinforced from youth.
Everything's a resource that's fit for abuse.
Tradition rules in the hearts of stubborn fools.
Tradition rules no matter how cruel.
It's just their arrogance
Arrogance that fuels their cruelty
Arrogance
Arrogance that fuels their cruelty
Arrogance is stupidity
When its surrounded in our frailty.
Arrogance is stupidity
When its surrounded in our frailty.
Knock them down, knock them down.
