|
Let's go |
|
So, so, you think you can tell |
|
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain |
|
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail |
|
A smile from a fair, do you think you can tell |
|
Did they get you to trade your heroes for goals |
|
Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze |
|
Cold comfort for change, did you exchange |
|
A walk on part in the war for a lead role in the game |
|
Whether you listenin' to hip hip-hop |
|
Or you tuning to rock |
|
Refugees on your box |
|
We gonna take over ya blocks |
|
Let's go |
|
How I wish, how I wish you were here |
|
We're just two lost souls swimming |
|
In a fish bowl year after year |
|
Runnin' over the same old ground |
|
But have we found the same old fears |
|
Wish you were here |
|
Whether you listenin' to rock |
|
Or pumpin' the hip hip-hop |
|
Refugees on your box |
|
Critics don't mistake this for just any cover tune |
|
I'ma take y'all to the dark side of the moon |
|
Kickin' in my mom's room, this song was just a thought |
|
A young refugee labeled, just come with a passport |
|
Dad used to tell me about the American dream |
|
My dream was waking up in the projects a young teen |
|
Listening to hip hop, my brother tune me into rock |
|
Put me up on pink Floyd and banned from the British blocks |
|
Whether you pumpin' the hip hip-hop |
|
Or you tuning to rock |
|
Refugees on your box |
|
We gonna take over the blocks |
|
From N.J. to BK to the UK |
