[Chorus]

That bright white horse

That you rode in

Never really saved us

Never really saved us

They promised me heaven

Still I found sadness

In all my neighbours

In all of my neighbours


[Verse 1]

Toppa the morning now which topic we mourning

I feel I’m burning out quick like pockets money is stored in

And we just wanna trade it in tonight for all the endorphins

& wake up dizzy in the morning filled with so many stories

Our hands are still being calloused from putting faith in a ballot

From chasing blue checks on the internet to make us feel valid

We stay inside of the moat, while they toast in the palace

Champagne blood and malice in a sacrament chalice


[Chorus]

That bright white horse

That you rode in

Never really saved us

Never really saved us

They promised me heaven

Still I found sadness

In all my neighbours

In all of my neighbours


[Verse 2]

They giving Trudeau the kudos!

“Check out that hair and that suite tho”

Meanwhile Indigenous people ain’t got no water deemed useful

I mean that smile isn’t truthful I mean they found them a loophole

& now we live life so frugal so that big business is fruitful?

I’m calling bullshit!

Yea this is bullshit

Yesterday a cop emptied out a full clip

They filmed it all they even uploaded the full clip

Church & State scheme & plot behind that pulpit

No justice, no peace, are you offended at a man who’s on his knees?

I’m confused, I mean I’m lost

I wrap my hands around my cross and pour myself another shot


[Bridge]

And oh my Lord

I wish I still believed those pages

But once you break free from the cages

The affluent affirm the affidavit

I never cheated never murdered that was David

But if I wanna smoke weed then I’m Satan

I don’t really know where to put my faith in

Singing Psalms while I’m basted faded


[Chorus]

That bright white horse

That you rode in

Never really saved us

Never really saved us

They promised me heaven

Still I found sadness

In all my neighbours

In all of my neighbours
