[00:23.20] |
Turn my mic up louder, I've got to say something |
[00:25.41] |
Lightweights stepping aside when we come in |
[00:27.65] |
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumpin |
[00:29.89] |
People on the street, they panic and start running |
[00:32.32] |
Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming |
[00:34.56] |
Jump in my mind, I summon the rhyme I'm dumpin |
[00:36.80] |
I'm healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in |
[00:39.22] |
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming |
[00:41.49] |
Jump when they tell us that they want to see jump |
[00:43.55] |
Fuck that, I want to see some fists pumpin |
[00:46.00] |
I missed something, take back what's yours |
[00:48.24] |
Say something that you know they might attack you for |
[00:50.30] |
'Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before |
[00:52.50] |
Like I'm stupid standing for what I'm standing for |
[00:55.02] |
Like this war's really just a different brand of war |
[00:57.20] |
Like it doesn't cater to rich and abandon poor |
[00:59.66] |
Like they understand you in the back of the jet |
[01:02.02] |
When you can't put gas in your tank |
[01:03.73] |
These fuckers are laughing their way to the bank |
[01:05.63] |
And cashing their check, asking you |
[01:07.00] |
To have compassion and have some respect |
[01:08.65] |
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way |
[01:10.98] |
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay |
[01:13.32] |
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day |
[01:15.68] |
In the living room, laughing, like, what did he say? |
[01:17.88] |
|
[01:18.16] |
Amen... Amen... Amen... Amen... |
[01:35.68] |
Amen... |
[01:39.38] |
|
[01:41.01] |
In my living room, watching, but I am not laughing |
[01:43.81] |
'Cause when it gets tense, I know what might happen |
[01:46.11] |
The world is cold, and bold men take action |
[01:48.38] |
Have to react or get blown into fractions |
[01:50.65] |
Ten years old, and something to see |
[01:52.96] |
Is another kid my age drugged under a jeep |
[01:55.07] |
Taken abound and found later under a tree |
[01:57.34] |
I wonder if he thought the next one could be me |
[01:59.58] |
Do you see? The soldiers that are out today |
[02:01.95] |
That brush the dust with bullet proof vests away |
[02:04.22] |
It's ironic, at times like this you pray |
[02:06.49] |
But a bomb blew tha mosque up yesterday |
[02:08.85] |
There's bombs on the buses, bikes, roads |
[02:11.37] |
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes |
[02:13.58] |
My dad, he's got a lot of fear I know |
[02:15.73] |
But enough pride inside not to let that show |
[02:17.97] |
My brother had a book he would hold with pride |
[02:20.36] |
A little red cover with a broken spine |
[02:22.51] |
In the back, he hand wrote a quote inside |
[02:24.87] |
'When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die' |
[02:27.11] |
Meanwhile, their leader just talks away |
[02:29.29] |
Stuttering and mumbling for Nightly News to replay |
[02:31.62] |
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day |
[02:34.11] |
Both scared and angry, like, "what did he say?" |
[02:36.26] |
|
[02:36.51] |
Amen... Amen... Amen... Amen... |
[02:55.17] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[02:59.61] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:04.09] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:08.63] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:13.11] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:17.87] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:31.75][03:22.29] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:36.47][03:27.17] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:40.24] |
|
[03:42.79] |
