Tie My Hands |
We are at war with the universe |
The sky is falling and the only thing that can save us now |
Is sensitivity and compassion |
Da da da, da-da-da, da da da |
Da da da, da-da-da, da da da, ooohh |
But I know one thing’s for sure |
I’m gonna get my kicks before it all burns down |
Yeah, some say tragedy’s hard to get over |
But sometimes that tragedy means it’s over |
Soldier, from the academy league of rollers |
I deny being down though they seem to hold us |
My shoulders are strong, I prove 'em wrong |
I ain’t doing nothing but moving on, let the truth be known |
But they talked that freedom at us |
And didn’t even leave a ladder, damn |
I work at the corner store |
We all got problems, problems |
No one’s gonna fly down low |
No one’s gonna save us now |
How you feel you’re not alone |
We’re all just jealous, jealous |
We don’t reach the sky no more |
We just can’t overcome, no |
You tie my hands, what am I gonna be? |
What have I done so bad? |
What is my destiny? |
You tie my hands, what am I suppose to see? |
What have I done so bad? |
What am I gonna be? |
I, knock on the door, hope isn’t home |
Fate’s not around, the luck’s all gone |
Don’t ask me what’s wrong, ask me what’s right |
And I’mma tell you what’s life, and did you know |
I lost everything? |
But I ain’t the only one |
First came the hurricane, then the morning sun |
Excuse me if I’m on one |
And don’t trip if I light one, I walk a tight one |
They tryna tell me keep my eyes open |
My whole city underwater, some people still floating |
And they wonder why black people still voting |
Cause your president still choking |
Take away the football team, the basketball team |
And all we got is me to represent New Orleans, shit |
No governor, no help from the mayor |
Just a steady beating heart and a wish and a prayer |
Let’s pray |
These friends they come and go |
But I got family, family |
These kids so fast they grow |
They learn so quickly now |
That there’s nowhere to go |
That there’s no future, future |
Don’t make this here so low |
And we can’t overcome, no |
You tie my hands, what am I gonna be? |
What have I done so bad? |
What is my destiny? |
You tie my hands, what am I suppose to see? |
What have I done so bad? |
What am I gonna be? |
Yeah, and if you come from under that water then there’s fresh air |
Just breathe, baby, God’s got a blessing to spare |
Yes, I know the process is so much stress |
But it’s the progress that feels the best |
Cause I came from the projects straight to success, and you’re next |
So try, they can’t steal your pride, it’s inside |
Then find it and keep on grinding |
Cause in every dark cloud, there’s a silver lining, I know |
Yeah, yeah, yeah |
See right now we just riding on love |
A shot in the dark |
We ain’t tryin to do nothing but hit the heart |
We need love |
That’s all y’all, that’s all |
You tie my hands, what am I gonna be? |
What have I done so bad? |
What is my destiny? |
You tie my hands, what am I suppose to see? |
What have I done so bad? |
What am I gonna be? |
You tie my hands, what am I gonna be? |
What have I done so bad? |
What is my destiny? |
You tie my hands, what am I suppose to see? |
What have I done so bad? |
What am I gonna be? |
Yeah, born right here in the USA |
But due to tragedy looked on by the whole world as a refugee |
So accept my emotion |
Do not take it as an offensive gesture |
It’s just the epitome of my soul and I must be me |
We got spirit y’all, we got spirit |
We got soul y’all, we got soul |
They don’t want us to see, but we already know |
