Lyrics Memento Mori - Flux Conduct, Oliver Steele

Memento Mori

We could’ve had it all
We could’ve had it all
There was a time when currency
Did not rule society
Now we live in a world that thrives
On the blood of a world of lies
You were given the chance to obey our sins
Now look at the state we left it in
The power of God was in our hands
But sold our souls for material things
We could’ve had it all
Yeah, we should’ve had it all
Free for all man
It was the promise that he had
We had the power in our grasp
To change the whole world
Restore what he had
It was the purpose of this man
He had the power in his grasp
To change the whole world
Deliver us what’s meant to be
You took it all and gave us hell
Remember what you came here for
Remember
We could’ve had it all
We could’ve had it all
(Instrumental break)
Would you like to think about promise and favor?
Would you even put yourself out for a stranger?
Would they treat you the same if you were in danger?
You could have had it all
You gotta treat people how you want to be treated
You fucking hypocrite you need to believe it
I bet my life around the people on my street
We hid our savior
If you listen to the beat I’m in
We didn’t have the common sense
To make us understand
Restore the power
Sure we could bring our whole world
The destruction we have caused
We saw the end of all
Deliver us what’s meant to be
You took it all and gave us hell
Remember what you came here for
Remember
Remember what you came here for
What you came here for
Remember what we came here for
We could’ve had it all
You could’ve had it all
I could’ve had it all
We could’ve had it all
But in your blind ignorance
We’ve gone and lost it
