blaze audio - home of the brave lyrics

[intro: peter finch “network (1976)”]
i don’t have to tell you things are bad
everybody knows things are bad
we know the air is unfit to breathe
and our food is unfit to eat
we sit watching our tvs
while some local newscaster tells us
that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes
as if that’s the way it’s supposed to be
we know things are bad — worse than bad. they’re crazy!

[verse 1: mike shinoda “hands held high”]
turn my mic up louder, i got to say something
light weights stepping aside when we come in
feel it in your chest, the syllables get pumping
people on the street, they panic and start running

words on loose leaf sheet, complete coming
i jump in my mind, i summon the rhyme i’m dumping
healing the blind, i promise to let the sun in
sick of the dark ways we march to the drumming

jump when they tell us that they wanna see jumping
f-ck that, i wanna see some fists pumping
risk something, take back what’s yours
say something that you know they might attack you for

’cause i’m sick of being treated like i had before
like it’s stupid standing for what i’m standing for
like this war’s really just a different brand of war
like it doesn’t cater to rich and abandon poor

like they understand you, in the back of their jet
when you can’t put gas in your tank
these f-ckers are laughing their way to the bank and cashing their cheque
asking you to have comp-ssion and have some respect

for a leader so nervous in an obvious way
stuttering and mumbling for nightly news to replay
and the rest of the world watching, at the end of the day
in the living room laughing like, “what did he say?”

[chorus: mike shinoda “debris”]
again and again
you said we couldn’t last long enough
or be strong enough
again and again
you said our voices weren’t loud enough
but we’ve had enough because

we want our future back
we want our own mistakes
to take our own path
we wanna do it again

[interlude: eminem]
yeah, shout to everybody
who’s been on this trip with me
you don’t have to, agree
but if you feel like me

[verse 2: eminem “like home”]
someone get this aryan a sheet
time to bury him, so tell him to prepare to get impeached
everybody on your feet
this is where terrorism and heroism meet, square off in the street
this chump barely even sleeps
all he does is watch fox news like a parrot and repeats
while he looks like a canary with a beak
why you think he banned transgenders from the military with a tweet?
he’s tryin’ to divide us, this sh-t’s like a cult
but like johnny he’ll only unite us
’cause nothin’ inside us drives us like this fight does
similar to when two cars collide ’cause
our spirit’s crushed, and this spot’s a tight one
but here the jaws of life come
to pull us from the wreckage, that’s what we get pride from
when we can’t from our stars and stripes cause
this type of pickle that we’re in is hard to deal
but there’s always tomorrow still
if we start from scratch like a scab, get the scars to heal
and band together for charlottesville
and for heather, fallen heroes, fill this wall with murals
nevada get up, hit the d-mn resetter
let’s start from zero, this is our renewal
spray tan, get rid of, get a brand new, better
america

we want our future back
we want our own mistakes
to take our own path
we wanna do it again
