the slums - saharan riptide lyrics
[verse 1]
mama knows best
water not getting better
spewing out
blacker than pollution in the weather
every summer
drying faster than sahara
no meat, no milk
animals relying on the weather
[bridge 1]
high emissions
of cold lead
in the veins and brains
of many children left dead
waiting for the truck of life
to pass on by
comes travelling down like a pharaoh
cash in tears falling from your eyes
[verse 2]
you don’t bat an eye
to see the terror
happening miles & miles away from your own hood
lands of sand &
not a drop of water
starving families with mothers, sons, and daughters
[bridge 2]
whatever you do to the earth
you’re doing to your children
the world works in cycles &
so is the life of man
[verse 3]
you don’t bat an eye
to see the terror
happening miles & miles away from your own hood
lands of sand &
not a drop of water
starving families with mothers, sons, and daughters
[instrumental break]
[coda]
the heart of man turns away from nature;
will quickly harden to stone
the heart of man turns away from nature;
we’ll quickly harden to stone
