Powerless (Say What You Want) |
Paint my face in your magazines |
Make it look whiter than it seems |
Paint me over with your dreams |
Shove away my ethnicity |
Burn every notion that I may have a flame inside to fight |
And say just what is on my mind |
Without offending your might |
Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you |
But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do So say what you want |
Say what you want |
I saw her face outside today |
Weatherworn, looking all the rage |
They took her passion and her gaze and made a poster |
Now it’s moccasins we sport |
We take the culture and contort |
Perhaps only to distort what we are hiding |
Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you |
But when you feel so powerless what are you gonna do But say what you want |
Say what you want |
Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in, get in Hey you, the one that don't fit in, how ya, how ya gonna get in Hey you, the one outside, are you ever gonna get in with |
your |
Broken teeth, broken jaw, broken mojo |
Yeah, this life is too short to live it just for you |
But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do Cuz this life is too short to live it just for you |
But when you feel so powerless, what are you gonna do |
