Die Alive by The Human Animal Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2010

[Verse 1: Bigg Higg]
I breathe life into my verse
It’s like watching a woman give birth
Like planting seeds in the earth
I’m still serene and secure in my worth
While the bombs and the bullets from the guns still burst
Because the people live cursed
Indigenous tribes banished from the lands that they once called home
Most people still scared of the new and unknown
I raise my black flag high for all of those killed
Sacco, Vanzetti, Magon, Durruti, Brad Will
Haymarket Martyrs, Spaniards in thirty six
Russians in 17, damn Bakunin predicted it
Knowing the state can crush us all in an instant
But we stand strong, thrive on persistence
Paying homage to the dead and their wisdom
All the beautiful souls who rot in prison
Who never saw the freedom that they died for
Who never could reach the goals that they strived for
When standing strong on the concrete, I do it for them
All the oppressed and the beaten down do it for them
All this death and destruction, we need it to end
[Chorus: The Human Animal]
I got a feeling we gon’ die tonight
I know I really wanna die tonight
I got a feeling we alive tonight
I know I wanna feel alive tonight
I got a feeling we gon’ die tonight
I know I really wanna die tonight
I got a feeling we alive

[Verse 2: The Human Animal]
I’m through with it all the drama and the bullshit
Consider me aborted, something you can’t afford to lose
In whose shoes I walk is not yours
I talk with your voice but not with your words
I’m worthless, a love you can’t purchase
A house made of gold but the home is unfurnished
A lesson learned so no more can you hurt us
The verdicts in and the only one i trust is me
And not you, you bit off more than you could chew
So far from the life you knew
From those two little words “I do”
I didn't, I tried, I lied, I did it, I'm a sinner
Shit I wonder if it’s even in you
To understand the pain that I been through
Being betrayed by the hero you look up to
My worst nightmare come true
Not being able to say I love you
[Chorus: The Human Animal]
I got a feeling we gon’ die tonight
I know I really wanna die tonight
I got a feeling we alive tonight
I know I wanna feel alive tonight
I got a feeling we gon’ die tonight
I know I really wanna die tonight
I got a feeling we alive
