lirik lagu alma cook – hearsay
[verse 1]
you know it really is a great tale
but i have to speak in code, or you’ll take this as hate mail
and on the chance my debate fails
quick as i came, i’ll be looking for the quickest escape trail
the safe trail’s the quickest in sight, but
if i step on n0body’s toes i must not be doing my job right
it’s not about me thinking that i’m right
it’s about a generation that lost motivation to fight
so who can tell me where the fire went?
take me to your leader—would she even know where you start & i end?
she’s talking funny & she’s coming on strong;
moses help me, how do i free a people with a song?
[chorus]
just let the band play
it’s all hearsay
just let the band play
it’s all hearsay
[verse 2]
you know it really is a great shame
that we choose to bow our heads to the smokescreens & fake names
and euphemistic campaigns
i mean i don’t know about you, but, we came here to break chains
so there’ll be no polite fiction tonight
’cause if i walk where everyone goes i will not be happy in hindsight
it’s not about me thinking that i’m right
we’re just trying to build a nation & make them ready to fight
so while you think about this
pay a little mind to the things that you’re doing with your lips
no strings, just seeing if it fits
prove to me world peace is more than a vague wish, go
[chorus]
just let the band play
it’s all hearsay
just let the band play
it’s all hearsay
[breakdown]
feed the hoax with keyboard strokes & holidays
cigarettes & kanye west & cabernet
i’m puzzled by the pride i find upon your faces;
activist with benefits, i call your name
