Lyrics
Living blocked off is tough
hope's long gone cause it costs too much
lost all strength in stopping stuff
when I fought my way to the top of the bluff and
it turned out to be nothing
billions of slaves in a race to be dubbed king
still some soldiers are coming through
are you with me? all we got is our trust in truth
so will we suddenly choose to break free
from the cage that is smothering crews
and motherly move to brace against the rubble and prove
to all our cousins there's another way of making our food?
or will we lose?
looking at you, checking for clues,
are you headed out to Mecca or you're wrecked on booze?
don't be messing with my head, I got enough of a noose
you're awake now, brother, and i'm talking to you
I don't care what they say
I know what to do
they try to pull me away
but they don't know the truth
my heart's crippled by the pain that I keep all closed in
but I keep open
and I keep breathing love
I breathe in love
meet defeat, I been beaten up
but getting free, joining people tryna flee the cuffs,
I study jeet kune do, judo, wing chun
I get prepared for the transfer
got two fists on my arms where my hands were
i'm food for the dudes who been starved by the cancer
I scar with my bars, but it's art, i'm a dancer
I got the problem, and the escape plan.
why we aint free? cause of civilization
so I set sights on Leviathan
no more fear, no more lying,
no more hiding, don't be silent,
breathe in air. you're alive so smile
but, there's bad shit coming
Babylon memes means madness running rampant
if you can't do something, y'all,
breathe love, do nothing at all.
