Walls And Laws by The Parachute Club Lyrics
In the breakdown, we're gonna find it
We're lookin' for a common cause
Let's get it!
In the beginning
We used weapons, wire and stone
To keep us safe from man and nature
Safe from the unknown
Building shelter from the danger
We had to keep control
The tribes who made the kingdoms
Engraved the laws in stone
Trading freedom for protection
Lost the common cause
The laws in the religion
To live within the walls
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
All around the world, the laws of color
Class and order separate us
Fear is ruling, we have lost control
Law of return, law of gender
Behavioral law, return to sender
If they law down the law
And you don't comply
You're a rebel in the system
Where the power lies
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Through the hole in the wall
We're gonna make it to the other side
Through the hole in the wall
There's freedom on the other side
Through the hole in the wall
We're gonna make it to the other side
Through the hole in the wall
There's freedom on the other side
Through the hole in the wall
We're gonna make it to the other side
Through the hole in the wall
There's freedom on the other side
Let's get it!
Through the hole in the wall
We're gonna make it to the other side
Through the hole in the wall
There's freedom on the other side
Push harder!
Now our lives are different
The weapons aren't the same
They can't protect us from the danger
They keep us in our place
From the history that haunts us
Lies that we been told
The chains of repetition
Stories stained in blood
The hunter and the hunted
They really seem the same
The love we have to offer
Can't live behind the wall
Through the hole in the wall
We'll make it to the other side
Through the hole in the wall
(Time is closing in, my friend)
We'll make it to the other side
Take up your heart, take up your love
(Let's turn the law to love again)
No obstacle is big enough
Through the hole in the wall
(Time is closing in, my friend)
We got to make it to the other side
Take up your heart, take up your love
(Let's turn the law to love again)
No obstacle is big enough
Through the hole in the wall
(Time is closing in, my friend)
We're gonna make it to the other side
Take up your heart, take up your love
(Let's turn the law to love again)
No obstacle is big enough
Get it, get, get, get, get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
Walking into walls
Livin' by the law
We're gonna break this down
Gonna get it right
