katie pruitt - look the other way lyrics
[verse 1]
they bulldozed over the memories
to build apartments with amenities
and left the low income families
broke on the outskirts of town
might be the change on the surface that bothers me
or the underlying lack of humanity
might be a little of everything
but i can never quite pin it down
[chorus 1]
and i get p+ssed when people tell me “that’s the way it is”
as if that’s all that they know how to say
when you walk past do you evеn stop to ask
or have you learned to look thе other way?
[verse 2]
the devil’s wearin’ a suite and tie
swearin’ on the bible there’s a twitch in his eye
i guess every crook’s got an alibi
as long as they got money to blow
’cause every last dollar goes to feedin’ machines
so we can keep on sellin’ the american dream
while our tv dinners and photoshopped screens
just keep on k!lling us slow
[chorus 2]
and i get p+ssed when people tell me “that’s the way it is”
feels like that’s all they know how to say
and it’s so sad to watch you give up the little power you have
all because you’d rather look the other way
[verse 3]
headlines are bleedin’ read
with the name of a man that i’ve never met
cuffed on the street with a knee on his neck
and tears spillin’ out of his eyes
are we heartless or are we numb
changin’ the channel on the television
and tellin’ ourselves we’re not the ones
and refusin’ to apologize
[chorus 3]
and i get p+ssed when people tell me “that’s the way it is”
when there is so much more that we can say
if you walk past knowin’ that breath might be his last
would you still have looked the other way?
[outro]
(would you still have looked the other way?)
would you still have looked the other way?
(would you still have looked the other way?)
would you still have looked the other way?
