Lifting Shadows
Just one dollar below 10K, that's the amount I'm flying with One more buck and the law comes out and they all want to know about why I'm rich I'm not rich I'm just on the way back to the land where they need this grip You give yours to a charity fund, I give mine to a cuz that's sick You see your name and it fourth on the list, scared I'm involved in the causing of pain Lost somebody you loved in the towers and looking at me like I boarded the plane I'm just an artist you're not a target no use in arguing we all look the same With that knowledge I stay calm when they search for bombs all they find is green All in your name - I got a name that'll scare all the brave in the land of the free All in the name of protecting a country that's shooting its citizens dead in the streets I used to live in Northeast D.C. not too far from Capitol Hill White House here, trap house there, they were so near you could go by feet Never mind that cause that's not news - let's stay glued to the war on peace Who gets blamed? Whoever can sway that the election sword's what the order seeks We just want to keep oil cheap, we just want to keep focus full What that mean? Distraction's came, I think my TV's clothed in wool
Man I swear they have my phoned tapped Man I swear they watching all my moves Since 9/11 it ain't too clear just who the target is I love my country, hate its politics Can't just let me be Can't just let me live Regardless my belief I thought the fathers wrote it clear But darkness all I see And darkness all I hear I'm trying to lift the shadow but the cloud ain't got no give Can't just let me be Can't just let me live Regardless my belief I thought the fathers wrote it clear But darkness all I see And darkness all I hear
I'm trying to lift the shadow but the cloud ain't got no give
I was on tour when the migrants came, saw their camps on side of the road 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 I met a boy who arrived in the rain, he lost his folks when they torched his home That made me want to bring my fam before they see that side of a drone But who wants us, we build your world it's 'labor's cool, neighbors no' I got a cuz that'll drive your taxi, I got a cuz that'll make your food I got a cuz that'll watch your kids and pick them up when they're done with school I got a cuz that'll pump your gas, I got a cuz that's good with tools I got a cuz that'll be your doctor after a test that I hope he'll pass Isn't that what you fear most? But fear don't trump your needs Our pros do trump our cons though. And cons don't trump your greed And monsters' what you make of us and we make you succeed And that's what makes this country great, it's built by those who bleed It's built by those who came on boats, it's built by those who flee And you forgot your family tree and we're just all your leaves
So if you just try to chop us down you only hurt your knees
And we could go in pieces but we'd rather come in peace
Man I swear they have my phoned tapped Man I swear they watching all my moves Since 9/11 it ain't too clear just who the target is I love my country, hate its politics Can't just let me be Can't just let me live Regardless my belief I thought the fathers wrote it clear But darkness all I see And darkness all I hear I'm trying to lift the shadow but the cloud ain't got no give Can't just let me be Can't just let me live Regardless my belief I thought the fathers wrote it clear But darkness all I see And darkness all I hear I'm trying to lift the shadow but the cloud ain't got no give
