It's easy to believe they're on your side

Promising gold but giving lies

A billion dollars for the city's pride

Yet the streets are cracked and dry

They hold the pen they write the rules

But we’re the ones played like fools

Read the writing on the wall

Big promises but we still fall

Enough is enough can't you see

Their game ain't for you or me

Homeless advocates with hands outstretched

But the pavement’s still a cold hard bed

They preach their care they paint it grand

While we’re left crawling in the sand

They light the fuse they fan the flame

But we’re the ones who take the blame

Read the writing on the wall

Big promises but we still fall

Enough is enough can't you see

Their game ain't for you or me
