GET BY

Lyrics: Ilham Jufri/Anthony Chaney Music: Ilham Jufri With how I speak, I need you to listen close With every word I say, they always try to provoke My mind is woke with these notes For the tortured, broken hearted and silenced Lets be honest, this world is cursed It’s an on going cycle War, pain and fear the temperature’s gettin' vital Overseas and civil rivals, causing anger I just know for now, we’re in danger I know it’s hard sometimes to get through the night No where to turn between left or right Walking through the darkness to find the light We just some young ones trying to get by Get by Get by Stay alive, survive, just trying to get by Get by Get by Terrified of what the future holds In a heated land we’re still living oddly cold I’m losing hope in these politicians  How do we have more rights for a weapon than a woman making decisions? We’re stuck in a warzone of our own  Cameras flashing while the bullet are killing the young and grown We protest cause the stress ain’t given us peace Instead of listening, you rather kill us dead in the street Week by week, dear Lord I need answers  I don’t think this world can handle another massacre Is this the end of times or is this just the beginning? I’m just a man of the flesh on a mission for the people to listen Where do we go from here Living in greater fear No need to shed a tear I pray we see it clear We gonna be alright Forever we will strive It’s just a test of time Fighting to stay alive I know it’s hard sometimes to get through the night No where to turn between left or right Walking through the darkness to find the light We just some young ones trying to get by Get by Get by Stay alive, survive, just trying to get by Get by Get by Oh, Do you hear our cry’s (Do you hear them?) Do you hear their lies (Do you hear them?) I know it’s hard sometimes to get through the night No where to turn between left or right Walking through the darkness to find the light We just some young ones trying to get by Get by Get by Stay alive, survive, just trying to get by Get by Get by
