MacDonald, Tom - Walk Alone Lyrics






To get where no one goes
You need to walk alone
The only shit you know
Is lies that you've been told
All of the news, all of the rules
Everything cool, is made up
They want us to lose
We're hitting snooze
We need to choose, to wake up

Man, they tricked us into thinking that the boys [?]
Muscles and make up is all a man or a woman needs
They use celebrities to sell us clothes we can't afford
Or make us feel okay about going broke 'fore we leave the store
Driving home in that luxury SUV
That you don't have no friends to fill so you got all these extra seats
You define your worth by your neighborhood and your streets
So you're living in the basement half a mile from the beach
The government been talking 'bout microchipping our minds, woah
And we refuse then blow a thousand on an iPhone
Most effective way to chip a person is to hide it
And re-brand it so it's cool, call it mobile devices
Taking pills that they talk about in the rap songs
Doctor's said they'd make you happy, huh, didn't last long
Too depressed to leave your bed, got fired from your last job
Soon you won't afford the rent and need a couch to crash on

To get where no one goes
You need to walk alone
The only shit you know
Is lies that you've been told
All of the news, all of the rules
Everything cool, is made up
They want us to lose
We're hitting snooze
We need to choose, to wake up

You finally got the newest Gucci belt, you ain't happy though
Still been super jealous of the couples in the sappy songs
They advertise that money's your savior
And if you bought into that narrative, you're bound to be failures
We've been tricked into valuing money over our lives
Diamonds rings worth a million while our water's worth a dime
And a diamond has no purpose but looking good when it shines
While our water gets polluted and we need it to survive
Pop culture got you losing your truth man
Makes whores out of women and turns the dudes into douche-bags
Confusing your mood with needing some pills and a new bag
Illusion of choice making us choose to be stupid
We let the music and movies and magazines
Define being successful, we don't know what it means
Got us working overtime to pay for bills we don't need
The system has been paying us to forget our dreams, yeah

It's lies on the TV, it's lies in the paper
It's Devils parading as if they were saviors
Fuck the whole system, that shit isn't real
Bust in the windows and go for the kill

To get where no one goes
You need to walk alone
The only shit you know
Is lies that you've been told
All of the news, all of the rules
Everything cool, is made up
They want us to lose
We're hitting snooze
We need to choose, to wake up
To get where no one goes
You need to walk alone
The only shit you know
Is lies that you've been told
All of the news, all of the rules
Everything cool, is made up
They want us to lose
We're hitting snooze
We need to choose, to wake up

To get where no one goes
You need to walk alone
The only shit you know
Is lies that you've been told
All of the news, all of the rules
Everything cool, is made up
They want us to lose
We're hitting snooze
We need to choose, to wake up

  7. D.... ....

    I've been through it all. From struggling with panic attacks an anxiety since I was 8, once I got old I decided to diagnose myself an prescribe something that would take it all away right away, self medication for years on end, 9am drunk mornings rolling out of bed a breath away from death, months of staying cooped in a box being to scared to face life an go outside, every morning having to clean the piled of a pyramid of empty beer boxes an bottles along my kitchen wall from the night before, etc etc I could go on... What helped me get through was looking to my higher self. Realising that all thought makes my reality. That this tv, radio, government schools, an so on are to blame for all this chaos, hatred an disruption. Once you realised we are more an you don't need some random doctor to tell you what is wrong with YOUR OWN self an you look within..... Everything will line up the way it should.
    Love 🥰🙏❤️

  24. B.... G....

    Happiness is but a wave,
    Find truth in meaning,
    Through the suffering be brave,
    Cut loose from the ceiling.
    Don't buckle or cave,
    Think of those you'd be leaving,
    Reach out a life you may save,
    In love never stop believing,
    Connection we crave,
    we all have our seasons,
    When silence is grave,
    Be each other's reason.

    You have a truly giving soul, you give so much of yourself away to help enlighten others and make them feel they aren't alone. I hope you have a strong circle that has your back as well, you deserve it. What you put out It's always a conversation starter something that needs to be said weather people want to hear about it at the time or not your giving what's needed. P.S. as for me 5 months opiate clean fuck pharma/docs that are in it for gain and not solve the physical problem only mask it and cause demons in a head like mine who had never touched a street drug. Keep grinding/ and Spitting the truth even if some can't handle the truth.#hangovergang

  44. P.... ....

    Tom MacDonald I challenge you to write an Alliteration Essay.
    Here's an example I wrote.
    https://youtu.be/KQG81YPFwIE
    My wish is that you would consider putting it to pen, or spoken word. Keep putting the truth out there.

  45. M.... ....

    Mmmmmmmmaaaaad

  46. J.... A....

    I saw you a little over a month ago in New Port Richie, Florida, with my best friend who passed away exactly one week later. We were front row Center at that show. We both found a lot of inspiration in your music. Thanks for a great show to make for a Great memory of my friend. I can totally relate to everything in this spoken word in a very profound way right now. Thanks for helping us all feel a little less alone.

  47. C.... P....

    ❤️❤️❤️

  48. A.... A....

    You just spoke for me . Thank you.

  49. M.... R....

    Don’t drink anymore

  50. C.... C....

    The message in this is powerful

  51. S.... ....

    Damn... 💯❤🔥

  52. E.... ....

    I’ve been going on 2 hours of sleep per night for the last 5 days. I go to bed and lay awake looking up wondering when I’m going to find my place or my calling in life that will please everyone. When my in-laws shit on everything I do to the point that I haven’t left my house in months. I’ve fought with this for 10 years. Dr prescribed my oxy after back surgery and it became an addiction for two years. I beat it. Wife cheated on me because I was fired from a job due to not being able to perform my duties because I was puking every 5 minutes and a month later I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. I have adult ADHD that I wouldn’t wish on my ex that handcuffed me to a water heater for three days. I’m now trying to raise three kids who also have ADHD. I feel like I can’t set a good example because I still have addictions. Gaming is my new pill. And I’m ashamed of who I am. I haven’t had a single day where I felt ok enough to not be sad in over 7 years. I feel broken. I wish I had one friend who could tell me it’s ok. Instead I have burn out friends who only know how to say that sucks and then they start talking about which strain of weed they had yesterday. I just want to live myself and have my family be proud. Instead I’m an embarrassment who is only kept around to be a glorified butler/babysitter. I’m miserable.

  53. C.... R....

    Deep brother. And true

  54. C.... B....

    Damn that was awesome.

  55. S.... S....

    Tom McDonald I hope my words reach you. I thank you. Your words change my life changed alot of thing and my friends. For that I thank you.

  57. A.... S....

    I thought anarchy spoken word was my favorite but dude this just smacked me in the face ( In a good way.) I know no one tends to read this far back but I've spent 12 years at least trying to change my state of mind. Started with pills , then cigarettes , weed, harder pills a few black outs in public made me quit pills but honestly I know I'm not the only one. Holding it in and not saying anything others don't need to know. That's not even mentioning the random images when you're driving down the road to hit the pole. I don't know, I'm strong enough to still be here but it's hard. Don't give up, everything including you are temporary. Why waste it?

  58. C.... R....

    Feels like tom got in my head. Blessings to him and his family.

  59. m.... g....

    The only people who can understand addiction are those who have lived it, or lived with a closely loved one who was addicted. I hope the day comes when no one understands addiction. The powerlessness of it, the despair. Loathing oneself for not being able to stop the actions, wanting them to end, praying for them to end, and yet continue to do them...

  88. M.... H....

    Yo I love this Tom💯 You always Motivate the people that interact with you and send positive messages. I dig that man. I’m an artist myself but over the past 3 years I’ve been battling so many demons that I couldn’t even get on the mic and speak what I was feeling bro. It felt like a permanent block I couldn’t get a control on but I finally have and I’ll never let those demons bring me back down and your music helped me a lot man. Much Love - Keyz3x
