The Grouch & Eligh - Worried About The World (Ft. Mike Marshall & Sage Francis)
off the album "Say G&E!" (2009)
Lyrics:
[Eligh]
I be worried about the world
looking at the TV
searching for something to take my mind off
the muck and the mire / they fuckin up
fire pissin gasoline and they demean us ream us
plus the hatred they takin in
hurry it out the door
ushering on the new millennium
it's on again we killin
it's on again we fillin
the bodies full of bullet holes
it's on
did you get the bulletin or not?
Captain America dug a burial plot
and you gonna wind up in that muthafucka
ready or not
if you standing between his riches
get out the way
if you don't understand that
then get up and say what you feel
in a sand trap it's hard to move
even with freedom of speech
man it's hard to prove
it's OK it's alright
we got something that you gonna like
feeding it to you with sugar and spice
taste things so nice when it goes down the pipe
bad information so wipe off the vine
sweeping your credit card wiping your mind
clean like the money that's laundered
to fund the propaganda movement
to get us all hyped up and mic'd up
in our own homes and strike up
a conversation with a mackintosh or a PC
rather be on the internet to prove i'm a baby
if i'm pacified enough i'll never come outside again
i'll never have a reason to fight
or if i think about it
never have a reason to give a shit about anything
it's OK it's alright
we got something that you gonna like
[Chorus - Mike Marshall *singing]
This mixed up world and it goes round and round
little kids robbin grown folks all over town
politicians steady lying business as usual
i wonder... what do we do know?
what do we do know? (repeats)
[Grouch]
This world is twisted
you missed it
the whole point of life resisted
love. how you gonna shed all that blood?
how they gonna bet on that? ugh
you'd rather break the bank
than focus your mind have to think
scared of silence afraid of the peace
America we made it a beast
gimme my health back
ain't no doctor they just sellin crack
like them rappers do
started with beef now i'm after you
and you don't have to chew
ain't no substance
it's GMO and ya'll lovin it
now i'm selling tapes and you dubbin' it
you sellin grapes and you bubble'n
who broke the covenant?
i don't see what's free about me
that's troublin
green hubblin examine
all there is is war and famine
with a little bit of rape and pillage
whatever happened to takes a village
do you feel it? can i kill it?
slang aside - that's how real it is
[Sage Francis]
Staring into the abyss
wait for it to blink
when it does take your paycheck
day to day type stuff everybody got a rough stuff
speedin tickets up in the tape deck
place bets / gamble every blood red cent
that i pinch on a 12 inch
never been a brick in a wall built by the long arm of law
i dedicate everything that i make to the anti-war veterans
born to defend / liberty to the death and the poor to the end
stonger than men who were given an upper hand
never consider pullin up another man
i'm a land mine lookin like a doormat fuckin up the format
frat boys imitating Borat
Mr. Joe, kiss, evoke, goodbye to the dive old digital hopes
oh where was i oh yah was i
preachin to the choir reachin in the fire
the reason i'm inspired don't wonder where it comes from
like the knot in my stomach is undone
come to the conundrum family untied
privilege is never given to indigenous blood lines
come to the conundrum family untied
privilege is never given to the people of the sunshine
it's alright it's OK
goin party all night
then burn to a crisp at the break of day
say it's OK it's alright
we'll give you somethin that you goin like
you goin like 'em (repeats)
[Partial Chorus]
This mixed up world and it goes round and round
i wonder... what do we do know?
what do we do know? (repeats)
