roots manuva - knee-jerk - japanese bonus track lyrics

[chorus]
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose

[verse 1]
oh, gully hand, welcome to my expo
look, skully head, you stay vexed, boy
truth of the universe, hidden from the first in line to find
we’re all particles in the cure
wickedness now, shall now be most for it
true wickedness, we’re on course and it’s done
deals in destiny, the test ever stands, the test will be in
each and every muscle of the rank in fresh air
dead and stinking, piles of death hair
daddy is a rebel, on the front line
the son of the enemy is a good friend of mine
gun in my hand, i got to forfeit friendship
bombs in my bag, the only way i defend sh+t
living amongst these daily slaughters
no second thought for who or what could be
the winner on the losing side
sitting on the fence or choosing side
might be the secret to keeping me alive
but i’m paranoid with a voice inside that says
[chorus]
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose

[verse 2]
guns on the streets and what do we do?
like we can’t see who’s the gun peoples
those who pull triggers are those who invest in the types of atrocities that make most interesting
headlines and news feeds to keep us all guessing
which one of these ports let the things in?
ontario motors and inside jobs
and even the brave ones will shut their gloves
living in the shadow of a half way h+ll
with no sure way of being able to tell
who’s good, who’s bad, who’s got the just cause
to take the full risk and break these laws
we want to know what they’re fighting for
civilised ways of a civilised war
or an everyday criminal out to get more
ain’t no one losing like the true poor

[chorus]
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose
driven to distraction, knee+jerk reactions
let the brute loose, let the brute loose

[outro]
so pure in tears, splash against the horizon
words will never be enough
the only way to know is to accept that all life is miraculous
the universe belongs to the beholder
the beholder is far closer to the rancid tongue of those that speak from the seats of delirium
is there such thing as murder?
