[00:17.084]When the shelter fails to shield
[00:19.764]Mass illusion feels to real
[00:23.398]Life is losing its appeal
[00:27.492]Innocence cannot reveal
[00:30.901]But back in the day
[00:33.269]A faith we never needed to display
[00:39.272]It was more than just a show
[00:41.501]I know you know
[00:45.282]A common ground, a loyalty,
[00:49.988]They way that we were meant to be
[00:54.407]You had my back, i had yours
[00:57.070]Like a Cosmic Troubadour
[01:18.108]Past and future, here and now
[01:21.969]In synch with what the law allows
[01:25.054]A droplet travels down your brow
[01:29.195]The keepers break another vow
[01:33.034]But back in the day
[01:35.050]We would never have it any other way
[01:41.196]We'd work our fingers to the bone
[01:44.238]Taking care of our own
[01:48.072]Whether together or alone
[01:50.635]An undisputed overthrow
[01:55.468]With no need to justify
[01:59.059]Always standing by my side
[03:07.584]Acting as the chosen ones
[03:11.182]Selected by the favorite son
[03:15.169]The getters need to get in done
[03:18.849]No matter who they take it from
[03:22.835]But back in the day
[03:24.960]We would pay the price we had to pay
[03:30.528]To me it never was too dear
[03:33.543]It's worth it just to hear
[03:36.179]The cadence guide a thought along
[03:40.652]Like the rhythm of a song
[03:45.045]Somehow caught in circumstance
[03:48.067]All we asked was half a chance
[03:53.520]But back in the day
[03:56.488]A faith we never needed to display
[04:01.194]It was more than just a show
[04:04.329]I know you know
[04:08.474]A common ground, a loyalty,
[04:12.344]They way that we were meant to be
[04:16.008]You had my back, i had yours
[04:19.623]Like a Cosmic Troubadour
[04:25.184]But back in the day...
