Who does see the twisted shadows fall
Encapturing minds
Who hears the youth call from my
Block niggers to suburban kids
I know this world weighs heavy
On your low set lids
This is for dark nights and sharp blades
For mountains of pain and your tear stained face
This is for every time they beat you every time they lied
Every time you suffered and every time you cried
This is for broken dreams shadowed with precision
Misunderstood visions, lives christened, imprisoned
Dismiss them
You were never meant to understand
Tag on every wall and kiss the sky when you can
For information work them
They’ll trace the outline of your soul when you desert them
Cause they don’t know the trouble that you’ve seen
And who cares tonight
Life is but a dream

It’s gonna be ok
Alright
Free your mind
If only for the night
Gonna be ok
Alright
You don’t have to cry tonight

Best to free your mind, ‘fore they bleed you like the rest
With guns and daggers it’s a slow silent death
While breathlessly await for the world to fall
It’s not gonna happen and you hemmed against the walls of your
Own design they cross all space and time
Who caused the vision who drew the line
Findin’ it hard to breath
Got bruises on the knees from prayin’ to leave, please
Conceiving ways to escape the venom
The biggest fight is for your life is for your next gen, defend ‘em
The rules, bend them cause they gon keep pretendin’
Every breath you take is worthless all endings no beginnings, bells ringing
No need to read braille, you shall prevail

Ok
Alright
Free your mind
If only for the night
Gonna be ok
Alright
You don’t have to fight tonight
You shall prevail

Cuts for luck and
Scars for freedom
They will never feel your pain
So you’ll defeat them
World in your eyes
Ready to fly
You must make it through the next day
Defeat them

Feeling used and abused quite confused
It’s really all about you and the way you wanna move
Those chains that seem to bind you
Let me remind you
The power’s in the people
Every moment’s perfect timing
You visualize death
Now visualize your life
You looked into the dark
Now look into the light

Cause they don’t know the trouble that you’ve seen
And who cares tonight
Life is but a dream

It’s gonna be ok
Alright
Free your mind
If only for the night
Gonna be ok
Alright
Let your light shine tonight
You shall prevail
