zinn - light up (freeverse) lyrics
[verse 1]
i used to see the world through a broken lens
this is the life i chose and now i’m losing friends
but i can’t stop now i’m focused on the target
and i’m not shooting bullets i’m spitting out knowledge
and this is the music you need to hear
i’ve seen the face of death myself and there’s not a rapper i fear
i’ve never gripped a pistol i’ve never sparked a nine
i’ve never sprayed a round i just stood inside
no armor piercing rounds no bullet proof vests
but they say the mind is stronger than the flesh
so i stuck to music as my way out
from all the violence surrounding me like a stakeout
the darkness settles in when you least expect
but you don’t have to change who you are to get respected
just be yourself and you’ll see the light
like sun reflecting off the moon in the dark of night
if its darkest before the dawn
then let the sunrise help you find the strength to carry on
i’ll probably never get a record deal
because the music that i make inspires something real
but i wouldn’t trade that for the world
like a father watching the birth of a new born baby girl
we we’re all created from the same image
but for most living on this earth liberty’s not a privilege
[hook]
[verse 2]
violence is a part of human nature
we claim to spread freedom and put our troops in danger
when they return home they like the benefits
that we promise them the system needs to be fixed
we can invest in arms contracts
but can’t better education so we can combat
poverty at home my generation’s lost
in penitentiaries we pay a higher cost
when we choose guns over enlightenment
we take the bullet for our sense of our ent-tlement
but we contribute to the cause
when we k!ll our own people we just fortify the odds
and the weapons that we use are military issue
so read between the lines you can see the bigger issue
don’t let the media shape your perception
when politicians lie and use deception
they say the war is being fought for our protection
but dishonesty only leads to disaffection
we need to show the world that we’re out for peace
instead of trying to make profits off the middle east
[hook]
