OSHUN - 2MINZOFH8 lyrics

[Verse 1: Niambi] They hate you then they love you then they hate you again And then they make you think you need em and they poisonous gin And your friends And they just want to see you happy again Or they just want to lead you fall and make a profit from sin It's pretend To think it's wrong to follow voices within To hate your own mind and love the lies that they send To love to lie inside a world that masks reality bends And shove aside the cries and scream the revolution begin If pollution would end we'd find solutions again If we could rise above confines and leave illusions within Hallucinogens, maybe start a movement again Not rectifying all the times that we let Lucifer in We losing again Look at us we losing our men, we dooming our men Promise to never lose our amends We choosing the end Proving the dark prevails in the end Just blame it on him and if you hate em say it again Yeah [Chorus] 1, 2, 1, 2 If you want to, here's your time to This is for you, to let it all out Before your two minutes are out And I said 1, 2, 1, 2 This is for you, if you want to Take your time, to let it all out Before your two minutes are out Before your two minutes are out Before your two minutes are out Before your two minutes are out Before your two minutes are out 2 minutes, 2 minutes yeah [Verse 2: Niambi] If you want to, we could play the blame game You can point your fingers and make a list of those names That shame the brotherhood and would devote themselves to the chains Profits for the promise, I swear it's always the same What's the saying, ignorance is freedom But if you're ignorant you'll probably never see the kingdom Because when the kingdom comes you sit and ask the king what he's done Is it worthy of your praise, but it'll be too late Yet you will be portrayed propaganda and clichés Broken promises, never cease to amaze Dead bouquets on displays, buffets, ballets Sipping wine and parfaits, you simply obey But monkey see what monkey do So maybe if I stand the other men will follow through And if we lift our hands we'll pay the homage that is due Their eyes were watching God, I saw you put those eyes on you No wonder why they so confused [Chorus] [Speech from the movie 1984] These are our people. The workers, the strivers, the builders. These are our people. The builders of our world, struggling, fighting, bleeding, dying. On the streets of our cities and on the far-flung battlefields. Fighting against the mutilation of our hopes and dreams [Chorus]
