Sitting Dove - Great Divide lyrics

What Up? (L) It's time... (R) Just after the rain, I was ridin' the redline Steam risin' glistenin' in the summer sunset light It was a hot and balmy evenin', Chicago Southside Rockin', floatin', back and forth and side to side I was gettin' light-headed when I heard, "It's time" A lady dancin' with the train, she said, "Yeah, it's time Uh huh...It's time... Uh huh Uh huh Uh huh Uh huh Yeah, it's time...Uh huh...It's time Uh huh Uh huh Uh huh Uh huh Yeah, it's time...Uh huh...it's time... That lady sittin' across from me kept sayin' "It's time" We're subjects of the experiment that lady and I We're forced to see each other from different sides We're victims of the experiment, the great divide That lady sittin' across from me kept sayin' "Yeah, it's time" Chorus: I got a Tupac in my soul, a Malcom in my mind I got a King-sized dream to overcome and override All the fear and rage recurring runnin' 'round my mind God please help me I'm alone tonight Help me quiet that Devil voice that's simmerin', seethin' inside Tame those demons teamin', tauntin', tryin' to destroy my life God please help me, I'm swingin' wide I got a King-size dream I gotta put in overdrive When I stop and think I can't stop wonderin' why Some men get to live and why some others die Why did Martin die, why is another livin' high Why did Malcolm die, why did another get to rise Why did Tupac die, why do those others thrive Why do the Kennedy's die why are the Bush's still alive These are the things I think of when I'm thinkin' Southside The birth of the Neo-Con came from the Southside "Neo" means global, domination is the prize Divide up the people and conquer worldwide "By any means" is their motto and their pride And they do it for real and they do it real sly By gettin' people to judge themselves and each other by their hyde And age and creed and gender—by any means divide Most of us mean well, we've just been fooled by their disguise We're victims of the experiment, the great divide Chorus: I got a Tupac in my soul, a Malcom in my mind I got a King-sized dream to overcome and override All the fear and rage recurring runnin' 'round my mind God please help me, I'm alone tonight Help me quiet that Devil voice that's simmerin', seethin' inside Tame those demons teamin', tauntin', tryin' to destroy my life God please help me, I'm swingin' wide I got a King-size dream I gotta put in overdrive (Bridge) Chorus: (2x) I got a Tupac in my soul, a Malcom in my mind I got a King-sized dream to overcome and override All the fear and rage recurring runnin' 'round my mind God please help me, I'm alone tonight Help me quiet that Devil voice that's simmerin', seethin' inside Tame those demons teamin', tauntin', tryin' to destroy my life God please help me, I'm swingin' wide I got a King-size dream I gotta put in overdrive
