otitis - people (dream lucidly) lyrics
[verse 1]
we all enter in the world without a clue of what our name is
what our race is… love is colorless and faceless
what’s the basis? i can’t understand these cases
a baby gettin’ cradled later brew into a racist
tell me, “face it… ain’t no reachin’ with short wings”
nah, cuz the problem’s what they’re teachin’ their offspring
we all kings, and queens, we all live and breathe
we all bring our dreams, so what’s it costing?
hate can generate the hate and harbor more
hate can penetrate the fate of what is great and start a war
love is free, love is simple, but more powerful than that
who we be, what we live through, all inspires how we act
human beings, we so capable to make or break a lot
brain capacity, comp-ssion, try to take just what you got
cuz the love is innate, and the hatred is not
so with my logic in place, i can’t relate to they thoughts, them
[hook – ot-tis & ashlee vivo]
people mad, people ill
people stab, people k!ll
people have, and they will
i’m just sad, that it’s real
our people ain’t what they used to be
we should be higher than the roof should be
should reside where the truth should be
i guess i dream lucidly
[verse 2]
seein’ kids playin’, such a carefree thing
not a trouble in the world they could barely bring, look-
watch how they behavin’, the black, white
and asian, latino, indian faces, all stay in harmony’s stasis
but as they grow, somethin’s lost in translation
society’s appliance of a violent man’s nation
now there’s riots and there’s fire on their faces
last seem to be where every quiet man places
worse yet, it’s been this way for an eternity
and everything in past time “trumps” what is currently
cops still har-ss, people fiendin’ for the currency
politicians lyin’, never true to what their words’ll be
if you stuck up in your seat for a while
know the poorest man still finds a reason to smile
and if you ever think there’ll never be defeat for the foul
try to think that soon enough we’ll see the peace thru the trials, of
[hook]
