The Light
Oh, oh I'm coming home The night is young Oh, shine your light For me when I'm out in the streets Ends justify means when you making a meet When you losing the sleep that you saying you need But what good is rest when it's family to feed When it's money to get, when it's dollars to count Fuck a job, you never raised for larger amounts Keep the lights on, front door locked 'Cause the villains in the wilderness, lotta George Zimmermans [?] innocence So that mean he still out on the prowl for a black child While the judge and jury crack smile, Lord Keep the lights burning Oh, I'm coming home I'm coming home The road is long The night is young The night is young Somewhere in America Say, say your prayers, shine your light For me Songtexte For me when I'm out on the creep Do whatever to get a meal when you barely can eat I'm determined to fight the power to further the peace Mama scared the police might make a point out of me 'Cause it's hard to sleep living life in a daze When kings wanna be niggers, I hope it's phase Queens down to be hoes as long as they paid Chained to our oppressor [?] slaves Who wants to be saved When they claim that the prayers that we pray go unheard In these God-forgotten days, it's [?] Keep the lights burning Oh, I'm coming home I'm coming home The road is long The night is young The night is young Somewhere in America Say, say your prayers, shine your light For me For me when I barely can smile And the sun refuse to shine when I'm out in the wild And the raindrops tap the window pane on my room Scared I lost faith, pray I find God soon In a world full of alt-rights I was left field Black man born poor, I was black steel Black man born free, this how blessed feel Because my dreams are dreams don't make them less real Nightmares are still the same thing I've fallen from grace, wishing I had wings Like a dunk in the Summer but I ain't had Spring 'Cause all that running from trouble'll give you bad knees Now how can I make a move without a play I got freedom of speech but with nothing to say 'cause all that working for something but they barely can pay What the glimmer of Heaven giving me every day So I wait in the water Filled with the sharks, snakes, gators, and piranhas Till the higher, higher ground of the mountaintop Away from the shooters that's down for shooting to take a shot 'Cause they believe in everything they ever heard From the bigots and racists that twisting every word So, [?] it can be the end On a podium speaking to family and friends So won't you keep that light, light, light Keep that light, light, light, light burning for me So won't you keep that light, light, light Keep that light, light, light, light burning for me Oh, I'm coming home I'm coming home The road is long The night is young The night is young Somewhere in America Say, say your prayers, shine your light Say your prayers, shine your light Shien your light For me For me Oh For me Oh Aus Songtexte Mania
