Born and raised into the low side ghetto
Made to learn to run away or fight
Travellin' through high class city for the first time
Got to see that something's not quite right

Coming back home into the dark
Rats deserting a sinking ship
Hitch the wagon to a star
Watch the water under the bridge

NO ONE EVER RECOGNIZE
NO ONE WANTS TO KNOW
NO ONE EVER REALIZE
NO ONE WANTS TO SHOW

Rich and poor, winners and losers
Black and white, saints and sinners
Power, weakness, wrong or right
It's all the bloody same when there ain't no light

NO ONE EVER RECOGNIZE
NO ONE WANTS TO KNOW
NO ONE EVER REALIZE
NO ONE WANTS TO SHOW
