ID THE POET lyrics : "Climb From Your Grave"
Climb from your grave, make haste, there's no time to waste
Let's overthrow this/ $#&@ being slaves
I'll put a slug in the head of the king
If he disrespects my people
Climb from your grave, make haste, there's no time to waste let's overthrow this mind state
And awake, and awake,
This ain't gonna be my final day
Verse 1:
An almighty God is what he said to me in vain
Bred to be the leader of a nation created so great
By means of bloodshed our wrath of freedom leaves 'em dead
Seeing red white and blue
God bless ain't meant for you
Hijack religion for the reason of the mission
Missiles fired from the Christians
What's the difference?
People dying every instance
Isn't God for all of us?
Allah,Buddha, Jah
With different versions
Confused I'm left cursing humankind
For refusing to help all of those we left behind
Religion separates when we need to combine
No philosophers in the limelight
It's obvious why
Just experts on CNN already retired
But they don't know %#@!
And dictate our fate so every nation hears it
The survey says that we support war
But for talking heads war is what they work for
Not what the people want
We don't want to watch our people die
(chorus)
verse 2:
I remain transfixed by the fading innocence
Of a planet trapped in orbit
One dimensional and morbid
Like Cortez I've explored it
Been to the edge of the world to see that no one can control it
Just exploit it and explode it
So they packaged it and sold it
I guess I should've voted instead of just wrote it down
But I got stuck deciding between a crook and a clown
And which one would look better wearing a Burger King crown
We're at war now I guess I should shut my mouth
Unequal power distribution
Elite few combine to form a dangerous fusion
Diluting truths and using the wack proofs that they're choosing
Omnipresence through wiretaps
They're taking our freedom back
The patriot act
In case we attack these privacy hacks
Take the power back to see the ivory tower fall and crumble to its knees
Watch it fall and crumble to its knees
Chorus:
Climb from your grave, make haste, there's no time to waste
Let's overthrow this/ $#&@ being slaves
I'll put a slug in the head of the king
If he disrespects my people
Climb from your grave, make haste, there's no time to waste let's overthrow This mind state
And awake, and awake,
This doesn't have to be our final day
