desmond michael - get down and run! lyrics
(verse:)
have you ever wondered what’s the origin of man
maybe if you knew your roots, you’d understand
i never understood the need for war
humanity, drop the weapons and dance more
i know that time will never come, but don’t say we didn’t warn you
swat teams driving down my block, aks on every corner
bullets cover the whole globe, now thats some global warming
just wanna have some fun (turn the music down the cops is swarming dawg)
(prechorus:)
don’t tell me that im wrong for having some fun
don’t tеll me that we’re scrеwed, nothing more can be done
children of god, we were all born in the sun
so what if we just wanna get down
(hook:)
get down and run!
get down and run!
get down and run!
get down and run!
(verse:)
fighting fire with fire just burns us all
sick of seeing brothers in mugshots against walls
or the way they get treated like slaves in prison halls
it all starts with the system in these school halls
have some love for ya brother, cause its so hard to find
praise every single sister, girl you’re so hard to find
please keep a tab where you keep that strap
cause you know that an attack coming back ain’t never too hard to find, b+tch
(prechorus:)
don’t tell me that im wrong for having some fun
don’t tell me that we’re screwed, nothing more can be done
children of god, we were all born in the sun
so what if we wanna get down (wait man i’m serious they brought the swat team, turn the music down, they got guns, we gonna have to get down and run)
(hook:)
get down and run!
get down and run!
get down and run!
get down and run!
(verse:)
i don’t think y’all listening to what i’m truly saying
im not gonna stop until i get my reparations
thats 40 acres in savings that i can give to my babies
so they can prosper in life and for future generations
so don’t test me or mines or say we insane
we do what we need to survive this political game
we gain and grow stronger, this is the warning
stop k!lling us before we retaliate stronger
we can’t take this any longer
stop k!lling us before we retaliate stronger
we can’t take this any longer
stop k!lling us before we retaliate stronger
i don’t think they listening to what i’m truly saying
i don’t think they believe me, they think i’m just playing
y’all don’t wanna hear me, nah y’all just wanna dance
you better get down while you can, and run when you see the gun in my hand
