'ya know one day the indigenous people of the | |
Earth are gonna reclaim what's righfully | |
There's.' | |
'really? uh oh!' | |
Lose your mind misplace your mind | |
Forgot you even had a mind | |
'cause someone told you it's impossible | |
To change your mind | |
A friend of mine made it to twenty-five | |
We had a celebration 'man i'm glad that you're alive' | |
I'm happy to see my man you're beatin' the odds | |
And for this on this day we give thanks to the gods | |
'cause everyone deserves a shot except you only get one | |
I hope it's not through the head my son. | |
'cause life is short when you're afraid to die. | |
Life is hard when you're afraid to cry. | |
But when i feel alone i sing myself a song | |
Because wherever i lay a groove is my home. | |
(chorus) | |
But can you see me in the desert? | |
Of course you can! | |
Can you see me on the mountain? | |
Of course you can! | |
Can you see me in the ocean? | |
Of course you can! | |
I'm just splishin' and splashin' | |
And jumpin' in the sand! | |
(repeat) | |
But he remembered memories of walkin' | |
Through the puddles | |
Sayin' 'gee dad, am i the one who's wanted by | |
The federal government doesn't want me | |
To go to school | |
I ask too many questions | |
And i don't play by their rules. | |
In school they tried to tall me | |
That a rock is not alive | |
But i have seen a volcano growin' up and die | |
In school they tried to tell me | |
That a tree it couldn't feel | |
But i have felt a tree and it was bleeding for real | |
In school they tried to tell | |
Me animals couldn't talk | |
But they can understand it when a dog starts to bark | |
In school they tried to tell me | |
Man doesn't have a soul | |
'whet happened to his' i say 'cause mine is | |
Still whole!' | |
(chorus) | |
(bridge) | |
'can you see me?' | |
'can you see me?' | |
The reoccuring dream of life's imprisonment | |
The reoccuring scream of a world and it's residents | |
The reoccuring theme of a mind full of finger prints | |
The reoccuring dream of a knife and a president | |
Well would you like to look at madonna's book on sex? | |
Or would you rather alex haley's book on malcolm x? | |
Their fuckin' with ice t but they don't even care if | |
Eric clapton's singin' i shot the sherriff! | |
But how many more books on this subject can i read | |
And how many more frustrations must i try to ease | |
End how many more days of this bad air can i breathe | |
And how many more of my friends must just die and leave | |
But you can't diffuse the ticking time bomb | |
You can't refuse the time it has come | |
You can't erase our people from the nation | |
I'll take a life before they call us 'the lost generation' | |
(chorus) | |
Can you see me in africa? | |
Of course you can! | |
Can you see me in asia? | |
Of course you can! | |
Can you see me in australia? | |
Of course you can! | |
Aotearoa? western samoa? eskimoa? | |
Can you see me in the white house? | |
No you can't! | |
Can you see me on the radio? | |
Hell no! | |
Can you see me with the police? | |
In handcuffs? | |
Splishin',splashin',jumpin' in the sand. |
