(feat. Tysha)



[Vex]

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

Let me say it again

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

I'ma tell you again

[Vex & Mondo]

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

[Vex]

Let me say it again

[Vex & Mondo]

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

[Vex]

Yes?



[Tysha]

When the slaves left Egypt, they never would have guessed

That they would be blessed in the wilderness

And now away from the ghettos our people must flee

Crack, crime and poverty are the shackles I see

How long will we live in this state of emergency?

In a place where hot water's the only thing that's free

Take me to the hot spring that lives by the meadow

Give me something else besides death in the ghetto

See, when the slaves left Egypt, they never would have guessed

That they'd find mannah and hot water in the wilderness

Nowadays our children have no place to play

Cause everyday someone is killed by a stray

And still we live on without anything to say

As the closing of time shows us we can't stay

The population of our growing black nation

Hasn't changed since our ancestors were brought to plantations

So - recognize these thresholds of negative stress

You can get YOUR hot water in the wilderness [echo]



[gradually fading out]

[Vex]

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

Let me say it again

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

I'ma tell you again

[Vex & Mondo]

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

[Vex]

Let me say it again

[Vex & Mondo]

Hot water in the wilderness

Hot water in the wilderness

[Vex]

Yes?
