Song | Going Hard |
Artist | Talib Kweli |
Album | The Beautiful Struggle |
作曲 : Charlemagne, Greene, Smyth | |
I got a part to play, we going hard these days | |
**** the harder way, we're doing it the smarter way | |
To my God | |
I pray, that's how | |
I start my day | |
The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today | |
I say the ****t these people ain't got the heart to say | |
**** the harder way, we doing it the smarter way | |
To my God | |
I pray, that's how | |
I start my day | |
The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today | |
You say you never scared there's kids in other countries | |
Making jerseys, jeans, and sneakers they could never wear | |
Parents never there, they're busy building homes | |
They can't afford to buy, cars they can't afford to drive | |
Working jobs that don't support their life | |
You busy screaming gangsta, gangsta all that talk is strife | |
You already know lost the fight if you don't know the cost of life | |
These kids is forced to fight a war they can't outrun | |
Ain't got no shoes but got a gun | |
Now where the **** he pulled that out from? | |
People ask me how we wearing diamonds | |
When there's little kids in | |
Sierra Leone | |
Losing arms for crying while they mining | |
Probably an orphan who's momma died of aids | |
He built a coffin working often but he never paid | |
Forever slaving in the world that's forever cold | |
Becoming the man of the house at 11 years old | |
This reality rap, | |
I get inside the mentality that | |
Terrorize you like a cowardly act | |
I got a part to play, we going hard these days | |
**** the harder way, we're doing it the smarter way | |
To my God | |
I pray, that's how | |
I start my day | |
The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today | |
I say the ****t these people ain't got the heart to say | |
**** the harder way, we doing it the smarter way | |
To my God | |
I pray, that's how | |
I start my day | |
The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today | |
I was sold to a sick | |
European by a rich | |
African battlin' | |
Middle passages, | |
I can't go back again | |
Battlin' years of denied history, lies and mysteries | |
Wives with misty eyes watchin' their hu****ands be beaten viciously | |
Battle in the wilderness of | |
North America | |
Run by the river, only stoppin' to pray chased by predators | |
Terrorists with etiquette who vote and kill their president | |
Their capacity for evil so evident and prevalent | |
Ain't no hesitation involved, a nation dissolved | |
While we sit back waitin' to evolve | |
Those who would trade in their freedom | |
For their protection deserve neither | |
Not a name, not tradition | |
Religion, you learn | |
Jesus, turn the other cheek | |
Inherit the earth, just stay meek, **** the way you speak | |
Try to run, we chop off your feet, fast forward to 2004 we selling | |
Yo this ain't what | |
I'm settling for, | |
I want more, yo | |
I got a part to play, we going hard these days | |
**** the harder way, we're doing it the smarter way | |
To my God | |
I pray, that's how | |
I start my day | |
The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today | |
I say the ****t these people ain't got the heart to say | |
**** the harder way, we doing it the smarter way | |
To my God | |
I pray, that's how | |
I start my day | |
The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today |
