Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Things have been getting real heavy these days
The media, the system, the people chasing pay
Somebody's got a rifle he won't turn the other cheek
Now it's his turn
[Verse 2]
Things have been getting real hectic these days
An eye for an eye, a spade is a spade
They're shooting him down and he's running away
That was their turn
[Verse 3]
I believe in
The same thing that makes the night become day
Tide and the water, sons and the daughters
Can't fight it, can't buy it
Love, I'ma say it again
[Verse 4]
It's the same thing that makes the moonlight
Meet up with the sunlight
Can't fight it, can't buy it
Love, I'ma say it again
[Verse 5]
When cut deep the same blood we bleed
We're not immune to addiction or disease
Got violent deaths in the family trees
Now it's our turn
[Verse 6]
Things have been seeming real shady these days
From the north to the south, to the east to the west
The happiness, she put it to your chest
When it's your turn, yeah, yeah
[Verse 7]
It's the same thing that makes the night become day
Tide and the water, sons and the daughters
Can't fight it, can't buy it
Love, I'ma say it again
[Verse 8]
It's the same thing that makes the moonlight
Meet up with the sunlight
Can't fight it, can't buy it
Love, I'ma say it again
[Verse 9]
Same thing that makes the night become day
Tide and the water, sons and the daughters
Can't fight it, can't buy it
Love, I'ma say it again
[Verse 10]
It's the same thing that makes the moonlight
Meet up with the starlight
Can't fight it, can't buy it
Love, I'ma say it again
