The Charade - D'Angelo, The Vanguard

Crawling through a systematic maze

And it pains to demise

Pain in our eyes

Strain of drownin', wading into your lies

Degradation so loud that you can’t hear the sound of our cries (doo, doo)

All the dreamers have gone to the side of the road which we will lay on

Inundated by media, virtual mind fucks in streams

All we wanted was a chance to talk

'Stead we only got outlined in chalk

Feet have bled a million miles we’ve walked

Revealing at the end of the day, the charade

Perpetrators beware say a prayer if you dare for the believers

With a faith at the size of a seed enough to be redeemed (doo doo)

Relegated to savages bound by the way of the deceivers

So anchors be sure that you’re sure we ain’t no amateurs

With the veil off our eyes we’ll truly see

And we’ll march on

And it really won’t take too long

And it really won’t take us very long

Revealing at the end of the day, the charade

All we wanted was a chance to talk

'Stead we only got outlined in chalk

'Stead we only got outlined in chalk

Revealing at the end of the day, the charade

All we wanted was a chance to talk

Revealing at the end of the day, the charade

All we wanted was a (the charade)
