Down to Earth - Corey Smith

A no-good Shepherd lost all the sheep

Yeah, he got drunk and fell asleep

And now they?

re running through the streets

Causing a commotion

Yeah, they?

re holding up the progress

Lets carve the boy to pieces

And then serve him to the press

Yes, yes

They thought he was a rock

Turned out to be a ragdoll

When we put him on a pedestal

We set him up to fall.

Now

Hes hanging by a thread

Were busting at the seams

He got a head full of crazy

We got a heart full of dreams

And we talk about love

And its?

Aw, man.

Whatever?

You?

ve heard it before

We?

re just preaching to the choir

Time after time, we fumble and falter

Swear we can change

But who?

s got the power?

And it weighs you down, And it weighs me down

And it weighs you down, And it weighs me down

Down to Earth

We?

ve got a constitution

We the people born to sin

We need a savior to redeem us

From the flesh were living in

Yeah, everyone?

s a hypocrite

Can?

t practice what we preach, no

The professor ain?

t no better

Than the ones hes trying to teach

And we talk about God

And it?

s ?Aw, man.

Whatever?

You?

ve heard it before

We?

re just preaching to the choir

Time after time, we fumble and falter

Swear we can change

But who?

s got the power?

Oh, it weighs you down, Oh, it weighs me down

Oh, it weighs you down, Oh, it weighs me down

Down to Earth

What we do is

Far from what we know we ought to

Its me, its you

Yeah, human is human

Well, the war is never over

The battles never won, no

Who could find the light

Under the barrel of a gun?

?Its freedom for the wealthy

Or justice for the poor.

There lies the ammunition

For this politicians war

And we talk about peace

And its?

Aw, man.

Whatever?

We?

ve heard it before

Your just preaching to the choir

Time after time, we fumble and falter

We swear we can change

But who?

s got the power?

And it weighs you down, And it weighs me down

And it weighs you down, And it weighs me down
