Lyrics

Apologies we can start again
The bridge ain't burnt so we can start again
Don’t know what I learned but this ain't the end
But when it is, I'll leave it all open
I was driving in the ghetto all day last week
Didn’t see one husk of a bus or a burnt out street,
If you ain’t really looking you’d be surprised by what ain’t seen
When the state is slick they keep Main Street clean
When Nanterre was burning, Central Paris was pristine and that shit's obscene
When Nahel got shot it didn’t mean nothing & it definitely didn’t stop the machine.
This civil war is subterranean despite everybody that be gaming it
With thumbs instead of guns until all them guns finally become available.
Where I am is Parcheesi and Yahtzee but as predictable as this line is
there’s a deep mine of Nazis chipping at excuses
goose stepping way beyond shocking
Pause for me
Kamalenia toumala djossi ti la bandon
Soungourounia toumala djossi ti la bandon
Demiseninia toumala djossi ti la bandon
Djossi ti la bandon djossi ti la bandon
Incredible
How we so predictable
Despicable
Fear is a dirigible
About to explode
Populist modes
Simplest code
Governing trolls
Will never let go
So stay out the fold
To hate we say no
Cuz if we don’t
We go up in smoke
Loose all the hope
Humanity chokes
Stand up to calamity make Humanity float
Save the planet damnit come and hand me my coat
Rise with me
Yeah fly with me
Come on rise with me
Yeah fly with me
Come on rise with me
Kamalenia toumaye djossi ti la bandon
Soungourounia toumaye djossi ti la bandon
Demiseninia toumala djossi ti la bandon
Djossi ti la bandon djossi ti la bandon
Apologies we can start again
The bridge ain't burnt so we can start again
Don’t know what I learned but this ain't the end
But when it is, we leave it all open
Apologies we can start again
The bridge ain't burnt so we can start again
Don’t know what I learned but this ain't the end
But when it is, we leave it all open
