| [00:23.200] |
Turn my mic up louder, I've got to say something |
| [00:25.410] |
Lightweights stepping aside when we come in |
| [00:27.650] |
Feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumpin |
| [00:29.890] |
People on the street, they panic and start running |
| [00:32.320] |
Words on loose leaf sheet complete coming |
| [00:34.560] |
Jump in my mind, I summon the rhyme I'm dumpin |
| [00:36.800] |
I'm healing the blind, I promise to let the sun in |
| [00:39.220] |
Sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming |
| [00:41.790] |
Jump when they tell us that they want to see jump |
| [00:43.850] |
**** that, I want to see some fists pumpin |
| [00:46.300] |
I missed something, take back what's yours |
| [00:48.540] |
Say something that you know they might attack you for |
| [00:50.600] |
'Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before |
| [00:52.800] |
Like I'm stupid standing for what I'm standing for |
| [00:55.320] |
Like this war's really just a different brand of war |
| [00:57.500] |
Like it doesn't cater to rich and abandon poor |
| [00:59.960] |
Like they understand you in the back of the jet |
| [01:03.220] |
When you can't put gas in your tank |
| [01:04.630] |
These ****ers are laughing their way to the bank |
| [01:06.530] |
And cashing their check, asking you |
| [01:07.900] |
To have compassion and have some respect |
| [01:09.550] |
For a leader so nervous in an obvious way |
| [01:11.880] |
Stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay |
| [01:14.220] |
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day |
| [01:16.580] |
In the living room, laughing, like, what did he say? |
| [01:18.780] |
|
| [01:19.060] |
Amen... Amen... Amen... Amen... |
| [01:36.580] |
Amen... |
| [01:40.280] |
|
| [01:41.910] |
In my living room, watching, but I am not laughing |
| [01:45.010] |
'Cause when it gets tense, I know what might happen |
| [01:47.310] |
The world is cold, and bold men take action |
| [01:49.580] |
Have to react or get blown into fractions |
| [01:51.850] |
Ten years old, and something to see |
| [01:54.160] |
Is another kid my age drugged under a jeep |
| [01:56.270] |
Taken abound and found later under a tree |
| [01:58.540] |
I wonder if he thought the next one could be me |
| [02:00.780] |
Do you see? The soldiers that are out today |
| [02:03.150] |
That brush the dust with bullet proof vests away |
| [02:05.420] |
It's ironic, at times like this you pray |
| [02:07.690] |
But a bomb blew tha mosque up yesterday |
| [02:10.050] |
There's bombs on the buses, bikes, roads |
| [02:12.570] |
Inside your market, your shops, your clothes |
| [02:14.780] |
My dad, he's got a lot of fear I know |
| [02:16.930] |
But enough pride inside not to let that show |
| [02:19.470] |
My brother had a book he would hold with pride |
| [02:21.860] |
A little red cover with a broken spine |
| [02:24.010] |
In the back, he hand wrote a quote inside |
| [02:26.370] |
'When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die' |
| [02:28.610] |
Meanwhile, their leader just talks away |
| [02:30.790] |
Stuttering and mumbling for Nightly News to replay |
| [02:33.120] |
The rest of the world watching at the end of the day |
| [02:35.610] |
Both scared and angry, like, what did he say? |
| [02:37.760] |
|
| [02:38.010] |
Amen... Amen... Amen... Amen... |
| [02:56.670] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
| [03:01.110] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
| [03:05.590] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
| [03:10.130] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
| [03:14.610] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
| [03:19.370] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
| [03:23.790] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
| [03:28.670] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
| [03:33.250] |
With hands held high into a sky so blue |
| [03:37.970] |
As the ocean opens up to swallow you |
| [03:41.740] |
