Bring It Home

(album: Native Tongue - 1993)

Stand and rise and before your eyes the lions will appear
And when they do, they will be filling you
With all the lies you need to hear
Mr. Politician, just keep on dishing your shit for the TV screen
Turn off his camera, and he'll drop the propaganda
Faster than the poverty he just seen
Got to bring it home
We got to bring it home

See his campaign run the by power and funds
And making all the deals he can
Isn't it funny what greed and money
Can do to the soul of a man
We don't seen nothing hear nothing
Just get their news stuffed down our throats at ten
Makes it hard to conceive who the fuck to believe
When I don't see no means to an end

We got to bring it home
I don't know what to believe
Till we bring it home
Don't you think you're fooling me
Got to bring it home

In this world that's grown so cold
Got to bring it home
We will never know till we bring it home

Watch the walls around come tumbling down
Like a house that's built on a hill
How can we change a thing
Or even get in the ring
If we're living our lives in guilt

We don't see it coming
Hear it coming
Acting like we know nothin
Chills me to the bone

Sure as hell, just fooling ourselves
Till we bring it home

Got to bring it home
I don't know what to believe
We got to get it home
Don't you think you're fooling me
We got to bring it home
In this world that's grown so cold
We got to get it home

Time has come now to bring it home
We got to get it home
Time has come now to bring it home
Got to get it home
The truth we will never find until we bring it home
