State of the Union - Parov Stelar

Wanna listen to the radio, can't listen to the radio

'Cause radio don't play music anymore

Wanna turn on the evening news,

Can't turn on the evening news, no

'Cause life ain't all about sex scandals and celebrity blues

Wanna take a joyride

Drive down to the countryside

CEOs are getting richer at the gas pump on my dime

Look out my window, backstreets and alleyways

The men in blue, they arrest the youth when they got nothing to do

This is the stade of the union

This is the stade of (hey, I was born and rise up) the union

Gonna rise up, rise up

This is the stade of (hey, I was born and rise up) the union

Gonna rise up, rise up

Rise up, rise up

This is the state of the union

Heard they burned a boy in southern florida

Over a civil game, will it ever be the same

And on the south side, up in chicago

I heard they beat a boy to death who meant no trouble

Assassination, I just don't understand

'Cause when you fight for peace

That's when they gun you down

All rise for Lincon

All rise for MLK

All rise for Lennon

All rise for the Kennedys

Stand up for unity, equality, stand up to be free

This is the state of

This is the stade of the union

This is the stade of (hey, I was born and rise up) the union

Gonna rise up, rise up

This is the stade of (hey, I was born and rise up) the union

Gonna rise up, rise up

Rise up, rise up

And on the south side, up in chicago

I heard they beat a boy to death who meant no trouble

Assassination, I just don't understand

'Cause when you fight for peace

That's when they gun you down

This is the stade of (hey, I was born and rise up) the union

Gonna rise up, rise up

This is the stade of (hey, I was born and rise up) the union

Gonna rise up, rise up

Rise up, rise up

Rise up, rise up

Rise up, rise up
