作曲 : R. Thicke/D. Carter 作词 : R. Thicke/D. Carter We are at war With the universe The sky is falling And the only thing that can save us now Is sensitivity and compassion (Da da da dadada da da da x2) But i know one thing is for sure I'm gonna get my kicks before it all burns down Yeah some say tragedies is hard to get over But sometime that tragedy means its over Soldier from the academy legal frolers I deny being down though they seen the holers My shoulders is strong i prove them wrong I aint doing nothing but moving on Let the truth be known But they talk that freedom matters and didn't even leave a latter Damn I work at the corner store we all got problems problems Who was gon' fight alone No one's gonna save us now How you feel you're not alone We're all just jealous jealous We don't reach the sky no more We jus can't overcome no You tie my hands What am i gonna be What have i done so bad What is my destiny You tie my hands What am i supposed to see What have i done so bad What am i gonna be I knock on the door Hope isn't home Faith's not around the luck's all gone Dont ask me whats wrong Ask me whats right And i'ma tell you whats life And did you know I lost everything but i ain't the only one First came the hurricane then the morning sun Excuse me if i'm on one and dont trip if i light one I walk a tight one They try tell me keep my eyes open My whole city under water some people still floatin' And they wonder why black people still voting Cuz your president still chokin' Take away the football team the basketball team Now all we got is me to represent New Orleans No governor no help from the mayor Jus a steady beatin heart and a wish and a prayer Let's pray These friends they come and go But i got family family These kids so fast they grow they learn so quickly now That there's no where to go that there's no future future Dont make this seem so low That we can't overcome Tie my hands What am i gonna be What have i done so bad What is my destiny You tie my hands What am i supposed to see What have i done so bad What am i gonna be And if you come from under that water then that's fresh air Just breathe baby God's got a blessing to spare Yes i know the presses is so much stress But its the progress that feels the best Cuz i came from the projects straight to success And you're next so try They can't steal your pride its inside Then find it and keep on grinding Cuz in every dark cloud theres a silver lining i know Yeah yeah yeah See right now we just ridin' on love A shinin dark We aint tryin'a do nothing but be at the heart We need love That's all now Born right here in the usa but due to tragdey Looked on by the whole world as a refugee So accept my emotion don't take it as an offensive gesture Its just the epitomy of my soul And i must b me We got spirt y'all We got spirit We got soul y'all We got soul They don't want us to see But we already know
