Be That Way Lyrics by Groundation

Building an Ark

0

The more things changes the more they stay the same
Don’t ask me why it’s just how them play the game
The less dem give is the more dem take away
Don’t ask me why it’s just how dem always stay

Always gonna be that way? always gonna be this way?

Do you know the story of Jesus and Judas
Do you know the story of Cesar and Brutus
Do you know the story of Yitzhak and Yigal
Do you know the story of Gandhi and Godse

Always gonna be this way? always gonna be this way?
Always gonna be this way always gonna be that way?

It come down on your head man you’ll see yourself
Ya na need to know, you like your role
And so your hour stay—tick-talkin away

Your love of fantasy is the reason for your demise
And in my hour with the let there be no question of my design
For us to elevate it will take all of you and I
Oh let this stand not weak but strong like a lion pride

Always gonna be this way? always gonna be this way?

Forming earth, wind, water, and fire
We will rise together, and take it forward
For we are forward people

Noah, no time to pretend
Send the ark back for your friends again
Ring alarm, ring the hell out alarm
Calling through the canyons for the
Ring out, ring out, ring out to all you warriors
Fighting, fighting to be free
Mountains of cost increases make things seem falling down
To make more money on poor countries later

Would I, knowing that is the plan
Ever come to pass it on?
No sir, so tell me right now
It’s not this play that I came for

Noah if you were stumbling
I would help you back on your feet again
But a race horse, don’t treat me that way
I’m not a race horse that you can call
Pass on,pass on all those qualities
For everyone, everyone to be free
Still Mountains of cost increases make things seem falling down
To make big money on poor countries later

Would I? Tell me right now
Come to pass it on
Tell me governing man
What is this old system based on?
