Lyrics for Stand to the Side by Talib Kweli:
| | | Artist: | Talib Kweli |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Stand to the Side | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 168 | | | | Lyrics: | [Kweli]
Go right to left, left to right
Middle passage connection
Yeah, about to
build
Tell you which way to go
[Both]
We go right to left, left to right
If you
fight to the death, what's left to fight
X4
Yo, here we go
[Kweli]
I wanna
write away
I wanna write here
I wanna write brave words to fight fear
Write dreams and
nightmares
Might scare the folks stuck in the day
But nothing to say,
Well I'm way ahead
by light years
So beware we keep the lights on
I wanna write the songs from right to
wrong
Right on
Riding the light so you see in the dark
So deep you gotta be still like
your beating heart
My words apply the pressure to make the bleeding stop
See the art, living
right, eating smart
I wanna right to life, a right to death
Police read your rights from
right to left
But I never write to remain silent
I fight through police line
Cops walk
the beat that I write to
I teach minds, write rhymes with the right sound
Right now,
journalists write up
I write down
[Both] :Chorus
Party people put a hand in the
sky
Grab a cloud and squeeze til no man is dry
We wet it up, go ask the people if they
plannin to die
Can't stay to live, consumers is plannin to buy
Smoke death operators is
standing by
They take you order for the slaughter of the family why
Do they make it so hard
for a man to provide
You better get wit it, or {stand to the side X7}
[Vinia
Mojica]
And the story line goes on
Right to left, who's right who's wrong
Fuck the
politics and pride
I just to try to stay alive
To witness where the battle lines are
drawn
Speak my mind and sing my song
I'm passin on the moral y'all-aca | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
