lyrics
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
(Hazey)
"It's inside of me a fire that breaths life it's the light
when I'm blind ta see vibrantly especially in time a peace
we fight amongst each other when there's so much to discover,
no need to act tougher when in fact many suffer
I'm a lover of the nice days fresh air and sunshine
a hammock in the shade on the beach just to unwind
sometimes, I wonder what motivates
the evil in some people was it born or did they grow ta hate
I hold my fate in my own hands with a firm grip
life is a lesson and its one ya better learn quick
heard this before, from my fam and ancestors
it's a sign of peace like a two fingered hand gesture"
hook:
All we got is us, through the rain and the lightning,
the pain can be frightening, crazy this life seems,
To always leave me crushed, put trust in my friends,
cuz all we got is us, through the thick and the thin
repeat
verse 2:
(Keen)
think about the positives more, and the troubles least,
i'm one for peace, every country is a puzzle piece,
made from the same material, in actuality,
we fit together perfectly, every nationality,
is detailed uniquely, and when we're united,
the picture's too beautiful, for words to describe it,
write it cuz I feel it, and I know a change is needed,
our foundation's strong, but the frame is depleted,
your brain i'm bout to feed it, this is food for thought,
believe it that i'm the clarity when the truth's forgot,
undo the noose's knot, drop and take a clean breath,
when your dream's vexed, just follow Keen's steps
hook
verse 3:
mind to the pen to the paper it's the art
when I open up my lips, I open up my heart
though the dark I illuminate to drown the negativity
no evil to my peoples lost ya know I pray ya live through me
Re-writing history, instantly my pen will be,
vividly scripting fresh paths towards victory,
filling in the incomplete, concepts humanity,
keeps overshadowed, it's time to break the canopy
cuz all we got is us when we down and outa luck
we pull thru as a crew we the diamonds in the rough
when we pick up the pieces when we blow away the dust
it our fam its our friends its the love its the trust
