the way that we live






The way that we live
By the rules and the laws
Under the umbrella of the Constitution
We want it free no draconian ways

The seasons we have lived
Through the decades of carrots and sticks
It dulls our minds to live in gifts
We let the transgressions out of our minds

They tell you of nationhood
Live in peace the way of harmony
In the long windy nights while we sleep
They crafted barriers put us in its place

We have lived through
The coated barriers in our minds
We are told to be good citizens
Live it don't tell no lies

Now the spook is gone
The black magic has broken away
We wake up to find something wrong
Our nation may go the wrong way

Now we knock on doors
The years of slumber we live through
We want our rights our freedom
It takes a little love our days are done
