JOHNNY, KICK A HOLE IN THE SKY
|
i cry, i cry
|
i was born in a land, i don't think you understand
|
god damn what i am
|
i'm a native of this place, please don't kick me in my face
|
my race has been disgraced
|
|
won't somebody testify, kick a hole right in the sky
|
testify testify kick a hole right in the sky
|
slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky
|
testify testify kick a hole right in the sky johnny,
|
johnny, johnny
|
puts us in a pumpkin shell where you keep us very well
|
it's hell, where i dwell
|
when history books are full of shit, i become the anarchist
|
i'm pissed at this
|
what this country claims to be
|
it's a lie
|
no place for me
|
i bleed
|
kill my trust if you must
|
but in my blood there is lust
|
for life
|
that's right
|
apache blood is in my heart thrashing though me like a shark
|
crashing though the dark
|
what am i supposed to do
|
i feel like i'm cut into confused
|
by rules
|
do these cultures clash or am i living in the past
|
i ask please tell me fast
|
to what do i belong and if i change will i be wrong
|
i took my foot kicked a hole in the sky
|
i proceeded to plead fathers help me decide
|
a jagged flash of light struck me in the eye
|
i turned around and found that i was still alive
|
snakes rise high from the purple black sky
|
the red cloud rains and the black horse rides
|
then it dawned on my like the mornin' sun
|
i'm a part of two worlds and the mornin' comes
|
glowing embers tend to remember when
|
the power that is peace was treated as a friend
|
i am a master of and i've got to take action
|
i'm a man, the animal man
|
