Perception Lyrics by NVSN

Finally Alive

2020

(Greg Hartley)
Bodies in the streets and no one seems to care
Cover up justice with thoughts and prayers
Well I'm here to make a difference
We can't be silent, yo this my position
I know I got it easy but my brothers got it hard
They try to go a mile but they won't get very far
It's time we break that system down
Build something nothing makes us proud
Gotta make a change we can't just sit around
When the smoke clears I know we'll be on top
Side by side locked arms we can't be stopped (yuh)

(Alex Carr)
I hear your voices
Help me understand
It's never changing
Help me understand
This broken perception
Blood against blood
But we bleed for each other
We're fighting deception
And we'll never find peace til we love one another

(Sakeboy Theory)

So I guess this is what it comes to
In the late night thinking who you run to
Blocked all my calls might change your number
This ain’t the summer I planned in winter
Like dang I miss her
All the sweat gone to waste no haste gotta E effort
Plus the counseling made me better
Chasing my dreams no ease in pressure
Riots and protest just to coexist
Who woulda thought of this when we was kids
Now I spend most of the time reminiscing
When I was wishing of making a million but now I just wish in a year that I’m living
Are you living or going through life?
Living day to day passing me by
Calculated risk rolling the dice

(Alex Carr)
I hear your voices
Help me understand
It's never changing
Help me understand
This broken perception
Blood against blood
But we bleed for each other
We're fighting deception
And we'll never find peace til we love one another

(Sakeboy Theory)
Life on the edge and we cracking the ice
This is for people who never did evil but still getting shot and they never get sequels
Balance the beam cuz our voices unequal
Broken foundations not a sound nation
Hospitals overcrowded with the patients
State of emergency no statements
Open carry for the closed case
You wanted to feel the heat?
You wanted to feel the heat?
(Feel the heat, feel the heat)
You wanted to feel the heat?
Now watch me burn

(Alex Carr)
I hear your voices
Help me understand
It's never changing
Help me understand
This broken perception
Blood against blood
But we bleed for each other
We're fighting deception
And we'll never find peace til we love one another

Help me understand
Help me understand
This broken perception
Blood against blood
But we bleed for each other
We're fighting deception
And we'll never find peace til we love one another
