Hands Up! - blackwave.

Stop pretending nothing’s going on in this world

Fight for equality

Hands up don’t shoot

Don’t you pick me out, ‘cause I’m that needle in a haystack

Funky on this jam, like my brothers was way back

Don’t you, put me in the, back of the bus

I’ll struggle if I must till they scatter my dust

Don’t you, point those fingers as if aiming triggers

It’s all you, point them at yourself in the mirror

‘Cause I can’t, I can’t, I can’t, cope with the standards

Wishing for some change while I’m trying to find the answers

But oh I, oh I …

I think it’s ‘bout that time, to fight till that throne’s mine

Now please stop pretending everything is alright

‘Cause you can run but you can’t hide

From the, issues and problems in the real world

(So get ‘em, tell ‘em)

Tell ‘em that this jam is my only way of living in a free world

(Is my only way of living in a free world)

Stop pretending nothing’s going on in this world

Fight for equality

Hands up don’t shoot

Let’s walk in this parade together

Realize it ain’t over and fight for a better world

You heard it, stop hiding the truth

Let’s make an end to what we started

Look these broken hearted people in the eyes, fight

Stop lying to yourself, institutional lies

Pimp this caterpillar

Still we believe what they tell us

Let us just walk in this parade together, -gether

Gather ‘round and let me tell ya

It’s not only war in the streets

Also the war within our souls that can change the weather

Don’t you get that

Or do you think you’re the exception

They should except it?

Fuck that

This shit ain’t over, nah

This shit ain’t over

Stop pretending nothing’s going on in this world

Fight for equality

Hands up don’t shoot
