Lyrics:
I was five years old when daddy started packin'
And I stood there by my mamma
As she cried
And the next thing that we knew
Some old train came
more
I've suffocated on freedom and I don't need your civil war
Like a man without a home
I got only land to roam
My desolation is my country now
My
away every gift
That she ever gave to me
Now everything is in its place
Except for her memory
And where do I put her memory
When it haunts me
(Whoa)
This just feels like civil war
Baby I don't love you anymore
Leave your bullshit by the door
I don't wanna talk about it anymore
No, no
This just
on, Em)
They say I'm day away from my entire empire crumbling
Speak up your mumbling
What the fuck-a you's a bibi-bay okay big-bi-bi-baby
This is
sticky situation
Civil war on the rock
What a shock
Crazy youth got the gun
Burnin and a lootin just for fun
Granny's in the street she got her gun
Makes
a night
To dance the sun beyond the tides of war and peace
To put silence stained by crimes to flight
I need to heart-break-loose-the wind
Dedela umoya
Chastity Sun, you are the one
That can make me smile
When I'm feeling sad
You come close to me
And my heart goes running free
You are the proof
The teleprompter is read
By the telegenic dead
And it goes out across the nation
There ain't no war information
The bravest kids I know
Are
huge funds
For refugees left to die
Flee from poverty, caused by war
Fought with weapons your provided
The truth, a bunch of lies
The majority believes
to change me now?
I sit and daydream, I've got daydreams galore
Cigarette ashes, there they go on the floor
I'll go away weekends, leave my keys in
And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you
And if I should
up and then "Who me?"
Locked in a trunk by Republican villains
Pinstripe suits, experts at killin
Civil war, but some want out
Trapped in a box
seen anything that came within miles
My heart got hijacked by you
Stuck in the traffic
Stuck at the lights what do I see
Some stupid bimbo in a fast car
come true
Ah, make a dream come true
If I let her get away
Though I'm begging on my knees
I'll be crying every day
Knowing the girl that got away
And the women they got frisky
By five o'clock in the evening
Every bastard there was piskey
Fare thee well, going away
There's nothing left to say
Farewell
Well, every time that I come home
Nobody wants to let me be
It seems that all the friends I've got
Just got to come interrogate me
Well, I
The time is now on everything
Took my heart away from money, I ain't interested in fame
And I pray that never change
Ambition is priceless, it's
couldn't have been 'Smith' or
'Jones' or 'Bush' or 'Powell'
That wasn't your name
They don't have those kind of names
Where you and I came from
No what was
I can see by your eyes you're a good girl
And the sparkle of the ring on your hand
You got a friend called ramblin' Trudi
Oh Johnny never looked like
that I'm not
That's all I give cause you're all that I've got
Got a condo with nuttin' but condoms in it
The same place where the rhymes is
'm all that I need
When I'm drifting away
To make up my mind
I need me tonight
Can I fight my own destiny
That has heen an irony
And determined when I was
now?
I sit and daydream, I've got daydreams galore
Cigarette ashes, there they go on the floor
I'll go away weekends, leave my keys in the door
But
of the righteous man
Needs a reason to kill man
History teaches us so
The reason he must attain
Must be approved by his God
His child, partisan brother of war
