lyrics

Turn my misery into music and my pain in to passion
I got to find a way to make a change, better take some action
Turn my misery into music and my pain in to passion
I got to find a way to change the day, got to make it happen /

I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired
Still it’s got me in lab and got me spitting fire
It’s got me hitting higher, aim for zones unknown
Yeah I talk that talk, but not on mobile phones /
Real life on Mics, it’s all a sign of the times, got me
chiming in rhyme, more times it’s a crime
It’s always the same one, time after time
I’m sure I’ve wrote this all before, line after line / like
Here we go again, talking bout a man being
murdered - just because of the colour of his skin
Not one of us can win with one of us getting killed still
You’re lucky I don’t feel the need to kill bill /
Imagine if I wanted more than equalities
Then it’s all forget ya laws and ya policies
I feel like I’m living out the days of prophecies
Time to change mind states, take back the colonies /
Not in the physical, I’m talking metaphorically
Show your community, the value of commodities
Find immunity, from building your economies
Live under your own model of democracies /
And one last thing that bothers me is the fact
that we got to ask for apologies, for past
atrocities, and it’s past the time to acknowledge the needs
Actually, it’s more than a sorry we need /

Turn my misery into music and my pain in to passion
I got to find a way to make a change, better take some action
Turn my misery into music and my pain in to passion
I got to find a way to change the day, got to make it happen

I’m not
saying that I’m woke, but I won’t get caught sleeping
Still getting poked but I won’t get caught weeping
You never said it but I know them thoughts that you keeping
Arguments are flawed for the most awful of reasons /
The problems not local, it’s in all other regions, and it
never stops, it goes for all four of the seasons
I just want a little shine like the sewing on of a sequins
but I carry patterns from what my past fam were dealing with /
Expect me to forget cos we live in a New Age
But trauma and pain’s passed down through DNA
I feel it in my blood, so, when I look around, I see the
remnants and residue appearing in my hood /
How the hell am I on edge, just to feel a little good
Had to work twice as hard, I’ve been steering in the mud
in a two wheel drive, when will you realise, for this
dude it’s real life and for true it’s been real rife
