For the People by Tallulah Gray Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2019

(Verse 1)
Oh stop talking about it
Spreading your word like gospel
Ain’t it just a tad dramatic
No need to act so hostile

Oh can you even tell
Your people are suffering
Bout time to say farewell
This country’s gone sovereign

(Chorus)
I don’t know what to
This impending doom
Got me running for my life
Yeah

The way you're running your country
I hate to put so bluntly
But you're fucking it up
For the People
(Verse 2)
Hiding behind your power
Leaving your people goners
Perched high up in your tower
“Alt-Right” won’t make us cower

(Chorus)
I don’t know what to
This impending doom
Got me running for my life
Yeah

The way you're running your country
I hate to put so bluntly
But you’re fucking it up
For the people

(Bridge)
Ain’t no Accountability
You’re running your mouth you won’t let 'em breathe
Trying to keep the civility
But there just ain’t no sympathy

From the people high up
Not trying to be so blunt
When justice is so corrupt
All we can do is disrupt
This everyday system
Turning us all into victims
Keepin' us all as statistics
Addicted to fighting and winning

In this ecosystem
All we can do is fight
Every day, every night
All we can do is write

(Chorus)
I don’t know what to
This impending doom
Got me running for my life
Yeah

The way you're running your country
I hate to put so bluntly
But you're fucking it up
On the real now

Fucking it up
For the people
