[Tune-Yards - Riotriot lyrics]
I have a secret to tell you
About the night I met you
You had come to put handcuffs on my brother
Down in the alleyway
I dreamt of making love to you
Up on the rooftop, looking up at the sky
Right before it happens
There's no sign at all one minute blue skies
Then the rain begins to fall
Pop go the windows pop go the windows
So we can see you more clearly
Pop go the windows so you can hear us
Through the night
Get real hot, blow your top
Get real hot, blow your top
Hiding in the alleyway
Get real hot, blow your top
They are writing and looking and
They're knocking at your door
Who are you for who are you
Put your hand upon my heart
Feel the beating of the wall who are you for
Who are you for
If you do nothing, you still do something
Do you see it do you see it
If you do nothing, you still do something
Do you feel me do you feel me
There is a freedom in violence
That I don't understand
And like I've never felt before
Why did you come here why did you come here
Why did you come here to our neighborhood
About the night I met you
You had come to put handcuffs on my brother
Down in the alleyway
I dreamt of making love to you
Up on the rooftop, looking up at the sky
Right before it happens
There's no sign at all one minute blue skies
Then the rain begins to fall
Pop go the windows pop go the windows
So we can see you more clearly
Pop go the windows so you can hear us
Through the night
Get real hot, blow your top
Get real hot, blow your top
Hiding in the alleyway
Get real hot, blow your top
They are writing and looking and
They're knocking at your door
Who are you for who are you
Put your hand upon my heart
Feel the beating of the wall who are you for
Who are you for
If you do nothing, you still do something
Do you see it do you see it
If you do nothing, you still do something
Do you feel me do you feel me
There is a freedom in violence
That I don't understand
And like I've never felt before
Why did you come here why did you come here
Why did you come here to our neighborhood
