As We - jacksoul

If solutions come from small seeds

Then I have no green thumb

Show me a river to cross

I’ll show you a model named Jordan

Children walk stillborn

As mothers live war-torn

With so much to buy and so little supply

'Cause Daddy said bye

He ran off with some guy

Who promised ascension

In 13 Dimensions

As long as we can shop till we drop

And we don’t sleep to dream

We’ll never awaken

And we’ll never know what hit us

We’ve got all of these choices

We’re making not one decision

Meanwhile all this white noise is

Just numbing derision

So many whiners but no one to push

I don’t wanna but Nike

But I’m feeling that Swoosh

I cannot deny what I so need to buy

I’d run so much faster

You swear you could fly…

I’m nobody’s Socrates, coming with ghetto philosophies

But I think that we can all agree:

A world with no community

And only dollar bills, and making cash, and pimps and ho’s…

It ain’t gonna go

Ain’t gon last too long

Still too many going to bed starving

While across the world somebody’s carving up a territory making dollars

Turn a deaf ear and you won’t have to hear the hollers

Of «How long, how long…»
