How Many More Remix by Kelissa Lyrics
Seems the world was built on lies
Instead of what is true
Teaching us to be civilized How many more will have to fall
How long will we ignore the ones who call?
Will take a war for us to
Stand together
How many more will have to bleed
How long will it take for us to see?
We will never be free if we
We can’t stand together
How many more
How many more
‘Till we stand together
Lets heal the world with our love
What can you contribute?
If you have nothing good to say
Please nuh bodda say den my yute
No one to blame but ourselves
Pointing fingers will not help
We’ve gotta find it in ourselves
To do the best that we can do
How many more will have to fall
How long will we ignore the ones who call?
Will take a war for us to
Stand together
How many more will have to bleed
How long will it take for us to see?
We will never be free if we
We can’t stand together
How many more
How many more
‘Till we stand together
Feel like the whole world against us
Life’s like paying on a debt; all interest
Every op-Ed piece on repeat
Different name same type of end-all senseless
How can we look for the light
When the darkness fighting to flood our senses?
Everytime we grow
Evil and ego show their face just to cut our inches
I never prized riches over righteous
I’m just looking for the heights, ya dig?
But it seem like we keep coming up short
Pay the price for the right to live
Wealthy class turn a blind eye
So they might avoid what our crisis is
Put us through hell on earth
Then tell us to mirror their Christ instead
I know we fed up
But we still starving for the answers
Got a whole generation of trauma t
O heal and this pain plagues us like a cancer
I’m aiming to end this cycle
But yet my will’s(wheels) prone to being tampered
A wise man said a small axe chop a big tree
Leave no branches. But no one man is an island
Tell me, who am I without we?
And how can I expect change
Without becoming the vibe that I seek?
I’ve seen war for far too long
And I am not willing to die without peace
Hope my last words keep a grasp on you
And I bridge divides with my reach
Instead of what is true
Teaching us to be civilized How many more will have to fall
How long will we ignore the ones who call?
Will take a war for us to
Stand together
How many more will have to bleed
How long will it take for us to see?
We will never be free if we
We can’t stand together
How many more
How many more
‘Till we stand together
Lets heal the world with our love
What can you contribute?
If you have nothing good to say
Please nuh bodda say den my yute
No one to blame but ourselves
Pointing fingers will not help
We’ve gotta find it in ourselves
To do the best that we can do
How many more will have to fall
How long will we ignore the ones who call?
Will take a war for us to
Stand together
How many more will have to bleed
How long will it take for us to see?
We will never be free if we
We can’t stand together
How many more
How many more
‘Till we stand together
Feel like the whole world against us
Life’s like paying on a debt; all interest
Every op-Ed piece on repeat
Different name same type of end-all senseless
How can we look for the light
