PARISI, RZA - No Refuge lyrics
[PARISI, RZA - No Refuge lyrics]
I don't understand how you're comparin'
A man from a land
That was set to be a beacon of light
For men escapin' the plight of tyranny
And the wearily poverty-stricken children
Who are sincerely innocent to the bombs
That dropped on their city
That cause disfigurement and injuries
Or the women that seek education and medicine
But are spiritually oppressed by
Those who don't
Understand the prophet's teachings clearly
As the yearly death toll rises in Syria
Creatin' more refugees
How can we dispute the truth that the seeds
Of man all fall down from the same tree?
I'm an innocent immigrant tryna immigrate to
A land built by the immigrants
Where the face of a former slave
Became the face of the President
Where the hearts of the depraved men once
Brought his ships and crossed the oceans
Searchin' for a place to practice their
Religion out in the open
And thus the country was made, yes
Let's make America great again
But not a place that's filled with bigotry
Racism and hate again
Let's fulfill the need of all men
From city streets to coal mines
But don't forget that humanity
Is the goldmine
I wanna fall at the feet of Lady Liberty
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Streams
To the land of the brave, and the free
Where there's freedom of speech
Freedom to teach but they won't let me in
No they won't let me in
They won't let me in, no they won't let me in
They won't let me in, no they won't let me in
They won't let me in, no
A man from a land
That was set to be a beacon of light
For men escapin' the plight of tyranny
And the wearily poverty-stricken children
Who are sincerely innocent to the bombs
That dropped on their city
That cause disfigurement and injuries
Or the women that seek education and medicine
But are spiritually oppressed by
Those who don't
Understand the prophet's teachings clearly
As the yearly death toll rises in Syria
Creatin' more refugees
How can we dispute the truth that the seeds
Of man all fall down from the same tree?
I'm an innocent immigrant tryna immigrate to
A land built by the immigrants
Where the face of a former slave
Became the face of the President
Where the hearts of the depraved men once
Brought his ships and crossed the oceans
Searchin' for a place to practice their
Religion out in the open
And thus the country was made, yes
Let's make America great again
But not a place that's filled with bigotry
Racism and hate again
Let's fulfill the need of all men
From city streets to coal mines
But don't forget that humanity
Is the goldmine
I wanna fall at the feet of Lady Liberty
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Streams
To the land of the brave, and the free
Where there's freedom of speech
Freedom to teach but they won't let me in
No they won't let me in
They won't let me in, no they won't let me in
They won't let me in, no they won't let me in
They won't let me in, no
