Greydon Square - Next Tuesday lyrics
[Greydon Square - Next Tuesday lyrics]
Listen kids, school is out
Difference is the stupid loud children
Now move the crowds
Bitchin’ about who’s allowed - and who isn’t
Truly valueless citizens going to work
Screaming "down with the system!"
But bounded by the very same
The shooters can barely aim
But often will take shots at
People they can rarely name
Therein the game lies the fix
I dare it to rain, leave your umbrellas
I insist you interested? Or movin’ out?
Here we’ll shoot up a hookah lounge
Our duplicitous indivisive nature
Is too pronounced still lieu of mention
Citizens aimin’ for true ascension
Perusin’ the main tenants while
Hooligans claim their innocence
Who really speaks for the denizens?
The Republican Bloods? The Democratic
Crips and them?
I’ve been described as insensitive
Nah, just indifferent about the nature of
Laws and who invented them
Never mind the lies that they tell us
It’s those who can challenge
Lie with the sellers
(Even armed with a voice)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
(Turn out)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
Ever wonder why they embellish
A system they bought
And crimes they inherit
As we starve for a choice
Because most of us just see next Tuesday
I think most of us just see -
The things we want to vote for
We don’t get to
The illusion of choice is how they trick you
Pick an issue - lyrics are meant to inform
Be critical
Information supplied to help you get
You through the storm
These rappers played misusin’ rap
I slay ‘em along with
These kleptocratic plutocrats
Just spewin’ facts
Desires sincere - with intellect hypocrisy
From where I peer we’ve
Never been a Democracy
Hope and change created targets
In an open range
But both are the same and that’s
Regardless of where the soldiers aim
Hoeish fame - orifice for the highest bidder
Admit it - you only notice it
When they buy a nigga
Try and figure who’s dying quicker
Lyin’ slicker
Or want me in a box cause I’m eyein’ bigger
You act as if yours gets
In it’s a game-changer but my vote’s my own
The right and left is for gangbangers
Never mind the lies that they tell us
It’s those who can challenge
Lie with the sellers
(Even armed with a voice)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
(Turn out)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
Ever wonder why they embellish
A system they bought
And crimes they inherit
As we starve for a choice
Because most of us just see next Tuesday
(Included) i think most of us just see -
Where I’m from, Black lives never mattered
Tell ‘em to look at stats and
Watch their glass eye shatter
Past-time servants scream "fuck
The police" to then find that it’s inverted
Surprise, it’s a circus (Surprise)
This constitution's not intended for you!
They claim it a sword
While it more resembles a noose
The odds have always favored the house
They always knew that they could get to
Fixin’ if the game was in doubt
A path of slain brothers
Our voice cries one thing while
Our actions say another
Of course their play is covered
Then we act as if we need
To be safe from others
The mothers ain’t raisin’ babies
Babies are raising mothers
I’m targeted for my genitals
Look at the choppin’ block
The fathers the most expendable
Harvested chosen mineral
Normally optimistic, pardon my cynicism
I think it stems from our
Lack of internal criticism
Never mind the lies that they tell us
It’s those who can challenge
Lie with the sellers
(Even armed with a voice)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
(Turn out)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
Ever wonder why they embellish
A system they bought
And crimes they inherit
As we starve for a choice
Because most of us just see next Tuesday
(Included)
I think most of us just see next Tuesday
