Slave to the grind

Não, eu não sacudia os cabelos para dançar...
Essa música é de revolta com o sistema.
Bem apropriada para os dias de hoje, sempre atual.

                              

You got me forced to crack my lids in two
I'm still stuck inside this rubber room
I gotta punch the clock that leads the blind
I'm just another gear in the assembly line - oh no

The noose gets tighter around my throat
But I ain't at the end of my rope 'cause

I won't be the one left behind
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind

Get it?
A routine injection, a lethal dose
But my day in the sun ain't even close
There's no need to waste your prayers on me
You better mark my words 'cause I'm history

Yes indeed
You might beg for mercy to get by
But I'd rather tear this thorn from my side

I won't be the one left behind
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind

They swallowed thier daggers by turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I'm sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

They swallowed thier daggers by turning their trick
They tore my intentions apart brick by brick
I'm sick of the jive
You talk verbal insecticide

I won't be the one left behind
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
Tear down the rat racial slime
Can't be king of the world
If you're slave to the grind
I said slave to the grind
Slave to the grind
Slave to the grind

Skid Row - Youth Gone Wild de um

Eu adoro quando estou pesquisando sobre uma coisa e me lembro de outra coisa nada a ver com a primeira.

Aconteceu isso hoje.

Estava procurando algumas coisas sobre rock e vi as fotos do Sebastian Bach, na época do Skid Row, e notei que tanto fazia se ele estivesse com cara de menino carente ou com cara de rebelde cheio de atitude... ele sempre estava colocando uma de suas tatuagens em evidência... nessa tatuagem está escrito: 

..."Youth Gone Wild".... 

Carambaaaa... confesso que ainda não tinha postado nada do Skid Row, pra não cair em "I remember you", "18 and life", wasted time, etc.. tudo bem que "Slave to the grind" e "monkey business" também virão para o blog em breve porque eu curto demais...

Mas relembrar youth gone wild, foi bom demais... gostosa de ouvir, não é tão agressiva e fala de uma juventude rebelde que quer fazer somente as suas vontades, sem se importar com que os pais ou a sociedade querem que ela faça. 

Aumenta o som aí...

Rollin'

Woah yeah

Since I was born

They couldn't hold me down

Another misfit kid

Another burned-out town

I never played by the rules and I never really cared

My nasty reputation takes me everywhere

Well I look n' see it's not only me

So many others have stood where I stand

We are the young - so raise your hands

They call us problem child

We spend our lives on trial

We walk an endless mile we are the youth gone wild

We stand and we won't fall we're one and one for all

The writing's on the wall - we are the youth gone wild

Boss screamin' my ear 'bout who I'm s'posed to be,

"Get a three-piece wall street smile, and son you'll look justlike me"

I said "hey, man, there's somethin' you oughta know, well I tellya park avenue leads to...skid row!!"

Well I look n' see it's not only me

We're standing tall, ain't never a doubt

We are the young, so shout it out

Well lemme hear ya get wild!

We are the youth gone wild!
