Bornfree - Waiting For Tomorrow lyrics

I watched the last bird in my city fly away this morning Warning the creatures bound to the ground to leave at the first sound of war And as it disappeared into the horizon I'm reminded that in my life I was never given the last resort of flight Cause I'm a fighter nearly lost my life so many times I wouldn't be surprised if come to find out after all this time We're lightning in a bottle to the System The same System we're gathered here with intentions to turn from victimizer to victim See we witnessed this sh** get critical soon as it happened We went from laughing and clapping to strapping and evacuating women and children Hollowing buildings, a**embling in secret Leaving families, careers and academics to defend the streets we grew up on Who knew when we left home for independence We'd be back in less than a year for more than personal business But here we are, no time for sorrow, just a trail of blood to follow Your sons and your daughters got you waiting for tomorrow (Chorus) We got'em waiting for tomorrow We can no longer show mercy or sorrow for a system we've been forced so long to follow We got'em waiting for tomorrow The empire falls tonight because the people have the right to have control over our lives We got'em waiting for tomorrow The sun will not arise long as the system is alive, so we will fight throughout the night We got'em waiting for tomorrow We are gathered here together, its now or never - tonight is the last night of forever We got'em waiting for tomorrow My Timmy's break the surface of a puddle splashing reflections of the skies above against me Trickling down as speedily as the flow of our enemies' adrenaline When trepidation possesses them In less than a second after a**essing our message We then a**emble; tears pour down from the heavens Onto a trembling planet beneath both me and my traveling companions Banded together, demeanors mirror the weather And whatever opposition positioned before us better stand prepared I got a hardhead to my left and he don't do a lot of chatter Rather bodybag than tolerate unnecessary yapping Lightning strikes at his arrival, street, mean teen keen sense of survival Neither bullets, banks nor bibles will deter us - Still carry the hurt of my mother's murder Not a word I can discern can return a person from earth But I use the resent nihilistically Spitting from the middle of the little n***a still waiting for his Mamma to shake him awake With a kiss and embrace with a smile on her face in me (Chorus) Mamma pardon all the hatred in my heart But when whoever is to blame took you away from me I lost the greater part of what you gave hereditarily: Love, compa**ion, good nature all escaped from my being And was replaced with these demons I've been defeating since birth - Now that I'm weakened they see me and the Most High ain't been speaking So they entreat my allegiance - I'm for the people! And though the evil I've made my life to destroy Is the seed of the creatures from which I breed I plan to lead them through the darkness to freedom! We wear our scars on our sleeves, we put our hearts on these records Never neglecting our brethren We cry, we sweat and we bleed together, forever or what's left of it Better than them lames that you're repping, The Resistance is evidence To the free world before us and the suffering that bore us That no more innocent souls will be forcibly sold from this point forward So lower your inhibitions, load up your ammunition Elevate your fists and save your wishes for Timmy's fishes (Chorus)
