Yella |
| What happened to this small forgotten town |
| Where words use to carry the weight |
| And silence wasn’t drowned |
| Everybody left for a better life downtown |
| And the baseball rolls slowly off the pitcher’s mound |
| As I stood in the batter’s box once they struck me out |
| I showed a sign a weakness and I swung my bat |
| And the fire that once burned yella turned to ash |
| Then Sir Lawrence of Philadelphia gave me some facts |
| And they lifted the weight of Olympus off my back |
| Sometimes when you lose my friend you win |
| Why does it end the good times when the good times just begin |
| Fortunes have nowhere left to spend |
| Everybody’s differences have a common ground |
| We let ourselves get in the way of our leaps and bounds |
| And you’ve shown a sign of weakness when you lack |
| And the fire that once burned yella turned to ash |
| And the fortress you built around you one day will crash |
| And will lift the weight of Olympus right off your back |
