The Last Dance Lyrics by Nate Joël

Cook boy Cook

2020

[Verse}
I’ve stood on principles and pillars that could never break
They giving us the run around on giving what we gotta take
No ballots for a revolution
Puttin hands up make for easy shootin
We’ve been getting robbed and u concerned with lootin
I don’t think your mind is right
You begged for peace when it was time to fight
Gotta call the choir for a silent night, voices in my head the loudest
I don’t expect respect when racists write about us
Soon as water break they try to drown us
Struggle hasn’t changed a bit
But what matters on the nations lips
System isn’t broken man it made em rich
Gotta know your history before u make it
Caution taping up the scene before we ever taped it
Now we seeing faces
Faces still ain’t made a mark
You call for action better play your part
Ain't no middle ground 400 years apart
True colors being shown if we not buying black
I ain’t into changing minds just seeing where your mind is at
United we standing against the people who force us to kneel
Way too many dancing with the devils then making a deal
Ain’t no getting even with this many odds
Nobody perfect in this light of ours
When you look for guidance don’t just follow stars
Now we need to wisen up
What good is timing when the time is up
Tell us to forget then keep reminding us
