lyrics

Give to the givers and lnove the lovers,
care for the caretakers while we recover
takers need givers to worry and fawn
no reciprocation no growth moving on
we give to the takers cause we see the need
but they do not grow meanwhile givers bleed

give to the givers, the lovers, the kind
and leave all the takers to fins what they find
if givers and lovers can just take a stand
and stand up to takers and all their demands,
it may be that we see those givers succeed
if there is a consequence for evil deeds.

the takers will lie look like givers for show,
but givers they can give when no body else knows
and its up to us to lift up the kind
and the honest and the true leave the takers behind,
maybe if we stop takin their deals
then the takers and the users will lose their appeal .
