[00:04.136] It came on a Sunday, hazy and draped in irony
[00:10.186] And it darkens the horizons, akin to white men touching down on Incan shores
[00:14.362] Akin to Babylon kings knocking on Daniel's door
[00:17.702] Home no longer home
[00:22.005] You could take the wings of the morning and attempt to fly where
[00:25.482] Your wings are subleased and someone has bought the air
[00:29.390] We just tryin' to feed our kids
[00:32.919] And you could chant down the occupier
[00:35.624] But when the empire strikes back
[00:37.661] You could try to set a forest fire
[00:40.467] But how you gon' get your home back
[00:43.127] When your whole home is in crisis but what's the price you pay when the home prices have priced you out, homes
[00:50.304] Where is here?
[00:53.166] But home
[00:55.458] Somewhere between citizen, prisoner, and refugee
[00:59.418] We ain't cross the border, boy, the border crossed me
[01:03.686] We ain't cross the border, the border crossed me
[01:09.191] Yeah
[01:10.302] I feel the tremors, rumors of war
[01:14.810] Upon the surface of my door
[01:18.682] And I got no place to call my country
[01:23.137] I got no place to call my country, anymore
[01:35.410] Yeah, when the bomb went off
[01:39.373] We were dancing in the kitchen with a neon cross
[01:44.120] Yeah, baby I'm lost
[01:48.693] I never saw it coming, never thought I'd wake up
[01:52.747] With no place to call my country
[01:56.517] I got no place to call my country, my country
[02:11.051] I know everyone of us are hypocrites
[02:15.316] But still I never thought that it would come to this
[02:19.475] No place to love, no place to exist
[02:23.727] I got no place to raise my kids
[02:28.890] All of my reserves are compromised
[02:33.091] You can punch a hole in all my alibis
[02:37.521] I know that I'm wrong, but you don't know you're blind
[02:41.553] Do you see me? Do you see me tonight?
[02:46.634] Yeah, when the bomb went off
[02:50.500] We were dancing in the kitchen with a neon cross
[02:55.315] Yeah, baby I'm lost
[02:59.742] I never saw it coming, never thought I'd wake up
[03:03.780] With no place to call my country
[03:07.654] I got no place to call my country, my country
[03:11.726] Y'all
[03:13.283] No country for old men, just not my kin
[03:15.450] And the land you was born in
[03:16.903] Man, you can hold them
[03:18.102] Home, this is home right?
[03:19.153] Home is not right, my home the whole night, got this stage fright
[03:23.092] From the personhood that y'all deny us
[03:25.370] And the pain that makes our art the flyest
[03:27.738] The metaphor in real world
[03:29.473] We are literally not of this world
[03:31.191] Somewhere between prisoner, citizen, and refugee
[03:33.488] We ain't cross the border, boy, the border crossed me
[03:35.448] Yeah
[03:36.947] We ain't cross the border, the border crossed me
[03:41.401] We ain't cross the border, boy, the border crossed me
[03:44.291] Yeah
[03:45.829] We ain't cross the border, the border crossed me
[03:50.014] We ain't cross the border, the border crossed me
[03:57.817] Yeah, when the bomb went off
[04:01.697] We were dancing in the kitchen with a neon cross
[04:06.428] Yeah, when the call came back
[04:10.475] I was standing in the shadow of a panic attack
[04:15.175] Yeah, I don't know where I'm at
[04:19.553] I never saw it coming, never thought I'd wake up
[04:23.733] With no place to call my country
[04:27.697] I got no place to call my country, my country
[04:35.439] No place to call my home, my home
