Prove Me Right

Prove Me Right - Memphis May Fire

We put our lives in the hands of the ones

That claimed they truly cared

Come to find it's all just a lie

And when we needed them no one was there

I swear I'm not bitter

I just see them for what they are;

Money hungry cowards sucking the blood

Out of artists and killing the art

So count out the money you stole

From starving artists you watched pave the way

But you know just as well as I do

Without us you're just an empty name

Where were you when they had no faith in us

Where were you when they shut us out

It's funny you show up now

And if it fell apart I know

That you'd be nowhere to be found

We did this on our own

Thanks for nothing

The ones that kicked me when I was down

Are the same ones that say they need me now

That's fine I'll play the game but just know

I told you so

I've seen the greed in their eyes

Well I guess I'm nothing but a dollar sign

I've seen the greed in their eyes

Well I guess I'm nothing but a dollar sign

Four years gone by

Now everything is fine no thanks to you

You'll never know nor do you care about

What it took or the things we've been through

Where were you when they had no faith in us

Where were you when they shut us out

It's funny you show up now

And if it fell apart I know

That you'd be nowhere to be found

We did this on our own

Thanks for nothing

Ignorance had me by the throat

From the day I learned how to sing

But now my eyes are open wide

And this is what I see

I see the greed in their eyes

They had me fooled at first

Because I believed all the lies

Oh the lies

I see the greed in their eyes

They had us fooled at first

But we're taking control this time

We're taking control this time

Where were you when they had no faith in us

Where were you when they shut us out

It's funny you show up now

And if it fell apart I know

That you'd be nowhere to be found

We did this on our own

Thanks for nothing

So count your money and I'll count my friends

We'll see who's richer in the end

We'll see who's richer in the end

We'll see who's richer in the end
