I saw this sweet old man
Desperation in his eyes
And someone told me separately
What he'd done with his life
That he'd fought ten million battles
And just barely survived
Cause the system shut him down
Right before it spat him out
They shaking our homes down
Building us cages
Charging us for our freedom
We just keep on paying
Feed us with poison
Making us choose a side
Tells us to hate our neighbours
I keep asking why oh why
Oh why oh why oh why
OH why oh why
Don't mess with the rhythm of my sisters and my brothers yeah
Don't ya mess with the rhythm of my people
Cause it'll be your end
We can't hear you anyway no no no no no
No thanks not today
Let's say we walk into the fire
Face freedom with desire
Stand strong against the tide
When your feet grow weary
Stories, steady, got me down
When the world gets heavy, help me out
Eyyy
They shaking our homes down
Building us cages
Charging us for our freedom
We just keep on paying
Feed us with poison
Making us choose a side
Tell us to hate our neighbours
I keep asking why oh why
Oh why oh why oh why
OH why oh why
Don't ya mess with the rhythm of my sisters and my brothers yeah
Don't ya mess with the rhythm of my people
Cause it'll be your end
We can't hear you anyway no no no no no
No thanks not today
