Faith resides beneath the eye
not far from hope in the mind nearby
hate guides my teeth to deny
But I'd rather choke than try to lie
living has not been this easy
freedom used to be for teasing
prisoners without walls or bars
asking help from the stars above
Please guide the way
please light my day
Tape my mouth, tie my hands
When my mind burns I wanna throw some thoughts away
Never take them back and never paint them black again
When my mind burns I wanna throw some thoughts away
Never ever take them back again
Leaning on forgiving streets
Tapping to those cencored beats
People had to make ends meet
had to make ends greet
They had to
obey hammer and a reaping hook
it was tought by a made up history book
made up glory to shine overseas
brought down by worker bees
in need to retrive their freedom
Tape my mouth, tie my hands
When my mind burns I wanna throw some thoughts away
Never take them back and never paint them black again
When my mind burns I wanna throw some thoughts away
Never ever take them back again.
