  • This is a new song
    It's called 1%
    When nothing is original
    When it's all been done to death
    Excitement level's at an all-time low
    Economy just takes a blow
    And we're left holding your mistakes
    And you think that stealing is acceptable
    Would you steal from your friends?
    Did your parents teach you nothing?
    Would you steal from your friends?
    Putting on a soul without control in a form with focus
    And I never wanted anything else
    Yeah, I speak my mind
    Just don't claim it's a crisis
    Yeah, I speak my mind
    Just don't claim it's a crisis
    Just don't claim it's a crisis
    And you think that stealing is acceptable
    Would you steal from your friends?
    Did your parents teach you nothing?
    Would you steal from your friends?
    I'm content with that I'ma see
    Feel the struggle between you and me
    And seeing your face up close
    Is better than through a telescope
    Well, yeah, I'm content with that I'ma see
    Feel the struggle between you and me
    And seeing your face up close
    Is better than through a telescope
    Is better than through a telescope
    Is better than through a telescope
    When nothing is original
    Because it's all been done to death
    Thank you Writer/s: GAVIN BURROUGH, KRIS COOMBS-ROBERTS, MATTHEW DAVIES-KREYE, PAT LUNDY, RICHARD BOUCHER
