Lyrics: Tom Excell/Bootie Brown/Nick Richards
Music: Tom Excell/Nick Richards
Something’s murky in the waters
Sip a taste and you won’t find truth
Try to take back what they owed us
You aint never gonna take my roots from me
(Finding my way through this masquerade)
Want to be free
Its not the way its supposed to be yea
Pen paled me on the horn about an o’er Mannn
Agreed to meet a Costa
Convinced I’d be perfect for the roster
Hate it when the situation feeling like You got’sta
Make the best of it
Light years from the truth you
And you feeling so desolate
Where has the e’ort went
It died on the honeymoon
Headed to the races, cause you gave a little running room
They trick you like its summer
gloom
When things got hot later
They switch to Darth Vader
Now forced to believe in the empire
Hard to bring you up to speed
Been slick the entire
And you catch them pocket patting
When things transpire
And they lost what they never brought
I should have never bought into the BS
I was dreaming VS
Wake up in the morning and greet
Buenos Dias
Crystal clear waters and why should
And why should I see less
Something’s murky in the waters
Sip a taste and you won’t find truth
Try to take back what they owed us
You aint never gonna take my roots from me
(Finding my way through this masquerade)
Want to be free
Its not the way its supposed to be yea
Even though it’s hard to see
Pull the wall over our eyes
Trying to disguise
Searching for silver in the lining
A glimmer of hope I see
A flicker in the dark
The truth is in the heart
We gon expose their lies
Illuminate peace burning out their minds
It’s already been televised
Lots of witnesses’ alibis
Evidence sanitized
Sanity jeopardized
Your idea your passion
Drive now neutralized Utilized
Niggas that you knew
Now it’s who them guys
Unsupervised
Dreams now euphonized
Cause they was led astray
So let’s take a moment
And let us
pray
Even though it’s hard to see
Pull the wall over our eyes
Trying to disguise
Searching for silver in the lining
A glimmer of hope I see
A flicker in the dark
The truth is in the heart
We gon expose their lies
Illuminate peace burning their minds
