lyrics
I’m caught up in the hustle, been around the world
checking many different cultures
Soaking up the vibes and observing all the vultures
on the bus from Caracas to Bogota, Columbia
I’v seen dead bodies in the street, people shrug and say let’s eat
Tryin’ to stay alive, runnin’ from machete knives
Bitch please, I've been to LA with the freaks, Berlin with the geeks
I was keen to touch down in the Cape, where everything was great
Now I’m back to sleeping late, unable to communicate
Reading 50 shades of grey, nothing much to say
But so much more to write about
Cast away the slightest doubt
Time to chase another cloud
Time to take another route
Listen to your inner voice
Make another choice
Kill the noise
To the system I can’t be obedient
I got too much intellect, wisdom and experience
To be working nine to five and merely survive, I say why
Man I can’t be steppin’ to the rear on some slavery fear
Wish you were here, makin’ money for the overseer
But that’s the story of your modern-day immigrant
Gotta pay the price for a permament residence
Keep on striving, hoping for a better day
Now should I go or should I stay
Riding on the beat, nothing left to eat, standing on my own two feet
The world is in a state of no return
It might cool off before we burn, time to take a different turn
It’s time to let your children learn, they might burn
Yearn, they might burn, before we burn
Listen to your inner voice
Make another choice
Kill the noise
Without unity, there is mutiny
Corporations, without scrutiny
Using up ressources, of course it’s…
The economy, blowing up whole nations
And the earth is growing ever so impatient
It might be too late but we gotta keep the faith
Sunshine or rain, resist or die in vain
Fuck the fame and them fake gold rings
As the universe looks on, the caged bird sings
See there’s money to be made in the shade of information
Some say we gotta chill, everything’s vibrations
You’re calling it free will, looking for sensations
We call it universal mind manipulation, manipulation
