Kano - Slaves lyrics
Your rating:
[Chorus: Why Why Peaches] We could sit around and talk for days 'Bout all the things that we would change But we never thought, never thought that we were slaves [Kano:] Uh, run away run away underground deep Release me from these shackles around feet. Old masters they don't own me Treat artists like sheep by they don't know me Rap star, rap star have you any tunes? Yes sir, yes sir, 3 disks full One for the radio and one for the states and one for my peoples who live down the lane Can't fool me boom free MIA But kill us over time, Ali Boombaye Puppets on the string, insignificant As people we've come a long way but we don't act different Money makes the world go round, dead presidents Summit like a spoon full of sugar to the medicine Necessary evil, slave to the sterling They run the world that we all just work in. [Chorus x2: Why Why Peaches] [Kano:] Look, pawns in the game but we don't make the checkmate Front line of defence, that's the modern day slave Used for consumerism so we get paid And give it straight back that's the boomerang play Win-win for them, c'mon folk lose-lose Programmed like robots, do what we're told to Aha, the whole worlds singing The same song, but changes? Ain't makin' them Brake slips blingin', gold chains swingin' Face tattooed up - Lil' Wayne tears drippin' Still in prison in this world we live in So wade in the water children No master Escapism through music, with no capture Accept the moment, 'cause I'll be on a prince protest Before I become a slave to the game bro' I'll be the artist formally known as Kano. [Why Why Peaches:] After listening to the preacher It seems that all the others teach us Is how to fear And fear it all Till you feel/fear [?] We could sit around and talk for days 'Bout all the things that we would change But we never thought, never thought that we were slaves We could sit around and talk for days 'Bout all the things that we would change But we never thought (never thought), never thought (never thought) that we were slaves (that we were the slaves).
