State of Siege

Down in the Street, of this sad City Life ain't too sweet and it ain't too pretty Crossroad, Which way to Turn? Help me Baby, where do I learn? They made a life a living hell Daddy's Mama fought the Power and she Lived to tell. It takes a strong love to survive A strong Faith to believe Oh Misery, won't you set me free Living......Under a State of Siege. Hot Summer street Hot summer noise of the City Your brother won't be back Sister cry Lord have Pity Hand in a pocket, jingling of keys Fear in One Gun, and now he's down on his knees. Kid can't figure it out And Lord, I can't figure, a way to get out... It takes a strong love to survive A strong Faith to believe Oh Misery, won't you set me free Living......Under a State of Siege. Fear Everywhere.... In the Mind, in little children locked inside a home In the Old, caught in the midst of this War Zone. A siren whaling, Baby crying System failing, someone lying Under Dark Sky, Strange bird flying... The Sound of Fury in a far-off land, They'll walk you to the river, watch me, Take a stand In a strong love I survive Strong faith I believe Oh Misery c'mon set me free Living...Under a State of Siege. More Misery, Baby Set me Free Yah I'm Living..... Under a State of Siege
