Tantalus! I don’t know how could this happen to us
Tantalus! We struggle and fight, but this thing could get worse
Tantalus! Now we tryna survive, remember we had it all
Tantalus! Missing the lives that we had before

We tried to live life with our own rules,
Forget about the pain, til we all good
Chasing fake dreams and claiming we’re free
When actually we slaves to them pills, dude
One supplier, high demand, damn we all addicted
Without thinking or feeling, without being realistic
Opportunistic business, why we want to live like that?
What is life without trouble, letting days pass?
Hook:
Tantalus! I don’t know how could this happen to us
Tantalus! We struggle and fight, but this thing could get worse
Tantalus! Now we tryna survive, remember we had it all
Tantalus! Missing the lives that we had before

Man we read it in the books, we watched it in the films
Is it just because we’re fool, or we paying for our sins?
We were living in that big city life, though
Now we’re living like in the last book of the Bible
Proud of wrecking with bullets and fire?
Proud of showing off nuclear power?
Lies and aggressions, unanswered questions
We smackheads, we junkies, how we thought we were patients?

Tantalus! I don’t know how could this happen to us
Tantalus! We struggle and fight, but this thing could get worse
Tantalus! Now we tryna survive, remember we had it all
Tantalus! Missing the lives that we had before

I don’t know how could this happen, life was so easy before...
It was easy ‘cause unconsciously this business made us vicious
I’m suspicious man that this is our end for good!
Now we all struggling and fighting, life was so easy before...
Nah, it wasn’t easy, it seemed delicious but it turned to be just visions
We banished without permission all provisions of life,
It fell to pieces!

Tantalus! I don’t know how could this happen to us
Tantalus! We struggle and fight, but this thing could get worse
Tantalus! Now we tryna survive, remember we had it all
Tantalus! Missing the lives that we had before
