Slaves
(专辑: Method To The Maadness - 2010)
[Chorus: Why Why Peaches] We could sit around and talk for days 'Bout all the
things that we would change But we never thought, never thought that we were slaves [Kano:] Uh, run away run away underground deep Release me from these shackles around feet. Old masters they don't own me Treat artists like sheep by they don't know me Rap star, rap star have you any tunes? Yes sir, yes sir, 3
disks full One for the
radio and one for the
states and one for my peoples who live down the
lane Can't fool me boom free MIA But kill us over time, Ali Boombaye Puppets on the
string, insignificant As people we've come a
long way but we don't act different Money makes the
world go round, dead presidents Summit like a
spoon full of sugar to the
medicine Necessary evil, slave to the
sterling They run the
world that we all just work in. [Chorus x2: Why Why Peaches] [Kano:] Look, pawns in the
game but we don't make the
checkmate Front line of defence, that's the
modern day slave Used for consumerism so we get paid And give it straight back that's the
boomerang play Win-win for them, c'mon folk lose-lose Programmed like robots, do what we're told to Aha, the
whole worlds singing The
same song, but changes? Ain't making them Brake slips blinging, gold chains swinging Face tattooed up Lil' Wayne tears dripping Still in prison in this world we live in So wade in the
water children No master Escapism through music, with no capture Accept the
moment, 'cause I'll be on a
prince protest Before I
become a
slave to the
game bro' I'll be the
artist formally known as Kano. [Why Why Peaches:] After listening to the
preacher It seems that all the
others teach us Is how to fear And fear it all Till you feel/fear [?] We could sit around and talk for days 'Bout all the
things that we would change But we never thought, never thought that we were slaves We could sit around and talk for days 'Bout all the
things that we would change But we never thought (never thought), never thought (never thought) that we were slaves (that we were the
slaves).
