lirik lagu akira the don - it's my language
it’s my language lyrics
but why would i put my job on the line to have an opinion?
i know why, because the ability to speak your truth is the bulwark against h~ll
and losing your job, that’s nothing, that’s nothing compared to where things can go when they go badly
for me, it was just preventative
it’s like, this isn’t going in a good direction
well, should you take a risk?
it’s like, you don’t have that choice
your silent, that’s a risk
now most people don’t understand the risks of silence
i happened to understand the risks of silence, because i’ve been studying them for 40 years
[chorus]
it’s my language
i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words
it’s my language
i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words
i know where corruption of speech leads
and i’m not going there
and you know, one of the things i tried to learn when i was taking apart what happened in auschwitz, and trying to put myself in the position of an auschwitz camp guard
which by the way you can do if you use your imagination a bit
i wouldn’t call it exactly the world most pleasant meditative experience
you can conjure that part of yourself up if you want, and that’ll teach you something about what your like
people don’t do it because it’s too frightening
but i know perfectly well that i could do that sort of thing
and so once i learned that i could do that sort of thing, and maybe that i could even enjoy it
i thought, “okay, fine, i get it. i’m gonna see if i can figure out how to live, so that if that opportunity was presented to me, i wouldn’t take it.”
[chorus]
it’s my language
i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words
it’s my language
i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words
and i think that’s the lesson that people need to learn from the 20th century
that’s what human beings did, okay, but we’re all human
okay, so how is it then we should live, so that we don’t do that again
well, a part of that is to try to say the truth
(part of that is to try to say the truth)
(no matter what)
(no matter what)
because the alternative is worse
and it is worse
[chorus]
it’s my language
i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words
it’s my language
i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words
(it’s my language)
(i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words)
(it’s my language)
(i’ll take responsibility for what i say i am not saying your words)
