[Chorus]
God knows I’ve tried
Replace my truth
Embrace their lie
God knows I’ve tried
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 1]
Tried believe find happiness
Only in something possessed
Only when other impressed
Possessions more – higher I score
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Tried believe society
Best understood as business
G.D.P as litmus test
Economic growth defines success
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Tried believe my body me
I and mine identity
Consider home my land of birth
Where ‘er I roam, my universe
[Instrumental]
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse 4]
Tried believe my life succeeds
Only when I live their dream
Goal of life for me prescribed
Believe their lie, God knows I tried
