[al:Minutes To Midnight(2010)] |
[00:23.34] |
Turn my mic up louder I've got to say something |
[00:25.72] |
Lightweights stepping aside when we come in |
[00:27.96] |
Feel it in your chest the syllables get pumpin |
[00:30.31] |
People on the street they panic and start running |
[00:32.55] |
Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming |
[00:34.80] |
Jump in my mind I summon the rhyme I'm dumpin |
[00:37.16] |
I'm healing the blind I promise to let the sun in |
[00:39.53] |
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming |
[00:41.79] |
Jump when they tell us that they want to see jump |
[00:44.04] |
**** that I want to see some fists pumpin |
[00:46.31] |
I missed something take back what's yours |
[00:48.40] |
Say something that you know they might attack you for |
[00:50.78] |
'Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before |
[00:53.09] |
Like I'm stupid standing for what I'm standing for |
[00:55.34] |
Like this war's really just a different brand of war |
[00:57.78] |
Like it doesn't cater to rich and abandon poor |
[01:00.03] |
Like they understand you in the back of the jet |
[01:02.44] |
When you can't put gas in your tank |
[01:03.98] |
These ****ers are laughing their way to the bank |
[01:05.94] |
And cashing their check asking you |
[01:07.39] |
To have compassion and have some respect |
[01:09.15] |
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way |
[01:11.57] |
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay |
[01:13.76] |
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day |
[01:16.20] |
In the living room laughing like what did he say |
[01:17.91] |
Amen Amen Amen Amen |
[01:35.83] |
Amen |
[01:40.86] |
|
[01:41.83] |
In my living room watching but I am not laughing |
[01:44.12] |
'Cause when it gets tense I know what might happen |
[01:46.38] |
The world is cold and bold men take action |
[01:48.71] |
Have to react or get blown into fractions |
[01:50.76] |
|
[01:51.30] |
Ten years old and something to see |
[01:53.17] |
Is another kid my age drugged under a jeep |
[01:55.36] |
Taken abound and found later under a tree |
[01:57.55] |
I wonder if he thought the next one could be me |
[01:59.87] |
Do you see The soldiers that are out today |
[02:02.40] |
That brush the dust with bullet proof vests away |
[02:04.62] |
It's ironic at times like this you pray |
[02:06.94] |
But a bomb blew tha mosque up yesterday |
[02:09.18] |
There's bombs on the buses bikes roads |
[02:11.80] |
Inside your market your shops your clothes |
[02:13.91] |
My dad he's got a lot of fear I know |
[02:16.19] |
But enough pride inside not to let that show |
[02:18.45] |
My brother had a book he would hold with pride |
[02:20.80] |
A little red cover with a broken spine |
[02:22.99] |
In the back he hand wrote a quote inside |
[02:25.21] |
'When the rich wage war it's the poor who die' |
[02:27.70] |
Meanwhile their leader just talks away |
[02:30.04] |
Stuttering and mumbling for Nightly News to replay |
[02:32.35] |
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day |
[02:34.76] |
Both scared and angry like what did he say |
[02:36.35] |
Amen Amen Amen Amen |
[02:55.07] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[02:59.44] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:04.27] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:08.65] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:13.42] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:18.04] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:22.71] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:27.21] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:32.22] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
[03:36.48] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
[03:41.73] |
