They Lie
Lyrics
Remember when those men came
Waving privilege all in shame
Goes way back, way back to before
Fast forward today, town came to play
Forcing privilege in our stay
Noise way high, way high, thunders roar.
They will have to face it
Nothing can erase it
You know, you know, you know, you know
If they knew the ending
Right from the beginning
They'd know, they'd know, they'd know, they'd know
These are the times where the truth hurts
Small reconciling in short blurts
These are their lies and we know it, and they know it
No compromise from the big guys
They take offense to the uprise
These are their lies and we know it, and they know it, and they know it
Making humane change is quite a battle
Selflessness pushes from the heart
History repeating over and over
Sadly privilege controls once again
Remember when those men came
Waving pretty privilege all in shame
Goes way back, way back to before
Fast forward today, town came to play
Forcing privilege in our stay
Noise way high, way high, thunders roar
They will have to face it
Nothing can erase it
You know, you know, you know, you know
If they knew the ending
Right from the beginning
They'd know, they'd know, they'd know, they'd know
These are the lives that are broken
These are the words left unspoken
These are all lies and they know it
You know, you know, you know, you know.
No compromise from the big guys
They take offense to the uprise
These are their lies and we know it
They'd know, they'd know, they'd know, they'd know
These are the times where the truth hurts
Small reconciling in short blurts
These are their lies and we know it, and they know it
No compromise from the big guys
They take offense to the uprise
These are their lies and we know it
If only life were l I like a dream
Remember when those men came
Waving privilege all in shame
Goes way back, way back to before
Fast forward today, town came to play
Forcing privilege in our stay
Noise way high, way high, thunders roar.
They will have to face it
Nothing can erase it
You know, you know, you know, you know
If they knew the ending
Right from the beginning
They'd know, they'd know, they'd know, they'd know
These are the times where the truth hurts
Small reconciling in short blurts
These are their lies and we know it, and they know it
No compromise from the big guys
They take offense to the uprise
These are their lies and we know it, and they know it, and they know it
Making humane change is quite a battle
Selflessness pushes from the heart
History repeating over and over
Sadly privilege controls once again
Remember when those men came
Waving pretty privilege all in shame
Goes way back, way back to before
Fast forward today, town came to play
Forcing privilege in our stay
Noise way high, way high, thunders roar
They will have to face it
Nothing can erase it
You know, you know, you know, you know
If they knew the ending
Right from the beginning
They'd know, they'd know, they'd know, they'd know
These are the lives that are broken
These are the words left unspoken
These are all lies and they know it
You know, you know, you know, you know.
No compromise from the big guys
They take offense to the uprise
These are their lies and we know it
They'd know, they'd know, they'd know, they'd know
These are the times where the truth hurts
Small reconciling in short blurts
These are their lies and we know it, and they know it
No compromise from the big guys
They take offense to the uprise
These are their lies and we know it
If only life were l I like a dream
