Warren Haynes - Beat Down The Dust lyrics

He said "man, there's got to be a plan There's always been a plan and What's happening ain't right And we can't let go of our power 'Cause we're rich and we're straight and we're white Content with our sins But don't you go calling us selfish Comfortable in our own skin As long as it doesn't touch anyone else's Time to beat down the dust Can't have it dragging us down Can't have it clinging to us Can't have it turning us brown" He said "Man has always been the man And that's always been the way it should be And they don't need to understand As long as we make them Believe that they're free And keep everyone scared That something's being taken away That's the only way to keep Things 'Back in the day'" Time to beat down the dust Can't have it dragging us down Can't have it clinging to us Can't have it turning us brown Time to beat down the dust Can't have it rising you see Time to beat down the dust Keep it off [?] you and me And when the day finally comes We'll be so far away They'll never know what we stole It'll be all hidden away And we can supply our own energy God knows we own enough companies Maybe even start our own country Where all rich, white men are free Time to beat down the dust Can't have it dragging us down Can't have it clinging to us Can't have it turning us brown Time to beat down the dust Can't have it rising you see Time to beat down the dust Keep it off [?] you and me
