nahko and medicine for the people - manifesto lyrics
well this is real talk, this is non-stop
it is looped now tongue and mind
played off the sidewalk, straight to your boombox
how it travels from ear to memory
well this is medicine, there’s a message within
and each will find it in their own time
well this is music, this is how i use it
it makes you move and move the movement
this is how i focus, knowing it’s not hopeless
but it sure starts with me and ends on a whole note
musical medicine, this is my healing
for past and present future things to come
i see people stressin’ over sp-ce and possessions
out of fear and a need for visual aids of our abundance
give me examples or something tangible
something i can get my hands on and find real meaning
where is the medicine? well i’ve been searching
and i suppose each will find their own kind
well everything’s at stake, it makes it hard to concentrate
and there are men who see a war and see a paycheck
such different programming, to live so fearfully
terror this and terror that terrible reality
there is no medicine on the television
so turn it off and turn yourself around
and let’s just face it, the world’s f-ckin’ racist
even the most peaceful of us gets caught in the trend
to live cohesively is almost a fantasy
and we ought to know it starts with humbling our egos
what is the medicine for cultural woundin’?
has it’s moments has it’s melodies has it’s time
well i was listening to the outgoing seasons
about climate change and some of the reasons
when the sky opened like i been hopin’
and there came horses by the thousands
and there was thunder on their tongues, and lightning on their minds
and they were singing this old melody from some other time
they sang don’t waste your hate
rather gather and create
be of service, be a sensible person
use your words and don’t be nervous
you can do this, you’ve got purpose
find your medicine and use it
they sang don’t waste your hate
rather gather and create
be of service, be a sensible person
use your words and don’t be nervous
you can do this, you’ve got purpose
find your medicine and use it
