T. Karras - Can't Believe This Lyrics

I'm in a situation
F*ck it, I'm always in these situations
And I can't seem to get out of them
What's a man in airquotes like me to do
Okay, yeah...

I'm hurting so much inside, I want to cry
It's always holding me back, I wish I could fly...
Look forward like a dove and be optimistic
But when I see these f*cking evils, I'm like; forget it
I went to the doctor to see what was wrong...
Told them I had these thoughts that were very strong
You would think the action would be to help...
But instead I'm in a bed locked up with a belt
Sedating me in the knee even though I did nothing
Leaving me to be thinking while I be self-destructin'
I pace around in a hallway, there's nothing to do
Drives me insane; and you think you have a clue...
It's not easy... we're locked up; forgotten
We have no rights, treated like criminals; rotten
Forced to compentate whether we gonna lose our minds
Disconnected from the very aspect of time

I can't believe this...
I just can't believe this...
I can't believe this...
I just can't believe this...

The floors were blue, the walls were white and green...
Now isn't that a depressing scene?
I read two romance novels, they ain't got any more!
Trying to remain sane, now that's a hard chore!
The food is bland and tasteless just like a prison
It's hard to contact the people that you'd be missin'
And if you suddenly awake at 2AM...
Then you'll be stuck in your cell until the day begins
Looking up at the cealing, thinking to yourself
Why the f*ck can't I get some form of help?
This doesn't help people, no it feels like hell!
And once they get out there, ain't no tellin...
What they'll do because their reality changed
Take away their purpose and they'll go completely insane
This ain't the solution, it ain't the fix... it's the problem
But you won't recognize the issue nor will you solve them...

I can't believe this...
I just can't believe this...
I can't believe this...
I just can't believe this...

We got with signs that say "feed me, feed me!"
Alot of innocents being killed through police brutality
There is no inclusiveness, it's just one big divide
And it's gotten to a point where it's impossible to survive...
We claim to know about the national issues...
Yet you wouldn't know if you were being misused...
Everything is lies created by people with money
If you ain't for the bullshit well consider yourself lucky
There's a lot of people who are enslaved...
Preprogramed to say the words that they say
Always on the phone, never saw the value of a life
All they care about is what's on Netflix tonight
If it's hot in Brooklyn than it's gonna get hotter
Especially since we're being robbed by President Mobster
The rich win, the poor don't, everything is bullshit
Y'all falling for the lies; and I just can't believe this...
