birth of a nation - paariah lyrics
[intro ]
they are dying
the people are dying
i’m scared to be next
will i live until tomorrow?
should i dye my hair white?
just in case
i wanna take a peek at me
when i’m old and grey
i prayed for a meteor
i wanted us to burn
but instead, i fell in love unexpectedly
and she got me wanting
to be a superhero
cancel the meteor
let us live
the people are dying
[ verse 1]
this is not a lovе song; i’m angry
i just got used to living like a hermit
is it not еnough
i have to watch the government
destroy the world
with their trauma
but now i’m in the mix
i worked so hard to hate the earthlings
lost my mind, tryna keep
me locked up
it’s been a while since i hoped for something
now i’m scared again
what did you do
it had to be your accent
show your hidden talent
[pre*chorus]
back to the people
centuries of war
haven’t you had enough
you got blood on your hands
haven’t you had enough
let love replace your hate
haven’t you had enough
it doesn’t have to be romantic
[ chorus]
praying for a shooting star to help me with my wish
cancel the meteor
cancel the hatred
praying for a miracle to help the people’s kids
cancel the greedy
cancel the evil
praying for the humans to get their act together
i want to live. no more suicide
help me despise the irony, please
cancel the meteor
cancel the tyranny
[ verse 2]
i’ve been running and running
from reality
prayed for the end
in control was my sanity
i was avoiding
was that my on my mom again
the destroying
i blamed it on my dad again
carried insecurities for my insanity
i was a bystander
trying to fit in desperately
the reality of war
was my last straw
but i’m the adult now
what will be my next draw
[ bridge]
how are we still complaining
about problems
they was dealing with 5 generations back
have you picked up on the patterns?
how haven’t we evolved past
drama that’s been holding us back
greed
envy
and the excluding
enough is enough
i’m done shedding tears
i’m ending it; it stops with me
i’m done having fears
my future generations
will know who they
shouldn’t be
stop begging your bully for crumbs
it’s insulting
[ outro]
they are alive
the people are alive
tell me how to help
the protest not working
they’re alive
the people are alive
tell me how to help
the guns ain’t either
they’re alive
the people are alive
they’re alive
the people are alive
they’re alive
the people are alive
tell them how to ride
they forgot about their bicycles
