As We Songtext

If solutions come from small seeds Then I have no green thumb Show me a river to cross I'll show you a model named Jordan Children walk stillborn As mothers live war-torn With so much to buy and so little supply 'Cause Daddy said bye He ran off with some guy Who promised ascension. In 13 Dimensions As long as we can shop till we drop And we don't sleep to dream We'll never awaken And we'll never know what hit us We've got all of these choices We're making not one decision Meanwhile all this white noise is Just numbing derision So many whiners but no one to push I don't wanna but Nike But I'm feeling that Swoosh I cannot deny what I so need to buy I'd run so much faster You swear you could fly... [chorus] I'm nobody's Socrates, coming with ghetto philosophies But I think that we can all agree: A world with no community And only dollar bills, and making cash , and pimps and ho's... It ain't gonna go. Ain't gon last too long. Still too many going to bed starving While across the world somebody's carving up a territory making dollars Turn a deaf ear and you won't have to hear the hollers Of "How long, how long..." [chorus]
