Hook
All I hear is what you say, hear is what you say
Ill be on my way
Chorus
Mr Mista can’t you see
Sometimes the world just takes a hold of me Forces my dreams to lead the way
Cause all I see is what you say
But keep your words until they walk my way
(Awa)
Why things gotta be the way they are
Even though you know the outcome
You close your eyes (You close your eyes)
And you Believe them lies (Believe them lies)
A generation’s hope
Well it starts with you and I
(Che Fu)
They big brother’s got my whole street on lock
He’s no relation so I pull out the stops
Gotta get my loop on Like a revolution
Its so confusing but I still have to try
Sometimes you make me wonder why
Why the news gone be about
More war
More death
More poverty
(Why things gotta be this way)
Sometimes you make me wonder why
(Awa)
Why the truth just can’t be found
Or why the love don’t seem to be Around
Chorus
(Kimbra)
Why’s it easier to hide behind?
And hold back from what is really on our minds
We need to run, united as one
And then the love around might just be found
Heyy
(Sabre)
Excuse me mr Babylon
You seem to have forgotten one
Seemingly Insignificant fact
While you’re pondering
People still living in these third world conditions
While you argue who said what, another life goes missing
The truth is that we know why
Witness it in our own lives
Michael said it best it’s the man in the mirror inside
Who holds the power to create change and break chains
Yesterdays gone let’s start today
(Kimbra)
Sometimes I don’t know where to start
Ohh, it seems I can’t do enough we need
More time, more signs
(Awa)
Lets do something worthwhile
(Kimbra)
I’m on my way, I’ve got something to say
What we need is more love, more trust
That the difference starts with us
(Cydel)
Mr Mista can’t you see
Sometimes the world just takes a hold of me (a hold of me)
Forces my dreams to lead the way
Cause all I see is what you say
But keep your words until they walk my way
Chorus
