How Many Lyrics by Saleka

Seance

2021

[Verse 1]
I have been staring at ceilings
Throwing things at the wall
Just for the sound of impact
To prove I still have any at all
The margins keep rising
But prejudice won't fall
A cycle of centuries
Karma can you hear this call

[Chorus]
How many minds
Have been forsaken
How many lives
Wrongfully taken
How many lies, how many times?
Before this movement starts to move
Before it's recognized as truth
How many, how many, how many times

[Verse 2]
I'm watching leaders preach perjury and
Deny the pending penance
Then condemn those marching the streets bеlow
Afraid they might mark our presencе
Twisted ink chokes us 'til every breath is a blessing
'Til faces are defaced and survival requires protesting

[Chorus]
How many minds
Have been forsaken
How many lives
Wrongfully taken
How many lies, how many times?
Before this movement starts to move
Before it's recognized as truth
How many times

[Verse 3]
Consensual illusion
Of a system that heals with time
While keepers remain killers
And color remains a
Color remains a crime
Color remains a crime

[Outro]
How many minds
Have been forsaken
How many lives
Wrongfully taken
How many lies, how many times, how many times?
Before this movement starts to move
Before it's recognized as truth
How many, how many, how many times?
Oh-oh-oh-oh-ooh
Oh-oh-ooh-oh-oh
