Angel Haze - Battle Cry lyrics

rate me

Hook:

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight, oh, oh

It's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky oh, oh

Lift your hands toward the sky

It seems like yesterday that I was nothing

Then all of a sudden I'm a volcanic eruption

Then all of a sudden it's like spontaneous combustion

And I'm all up in your face yelling: “bitch, you can tell me nothing!"

Cause I came from the bottom, now everybody's watching

I said it was my time, now I'm who everybody's blocking

And I'm just out here sprinting', I'm running right through my vision

I'm trying to outrun my past, but still trying to defeat my limits

Cause you only get one moment in this life to be great

And you can give it your all despite what it takes

And you never let 'em kill you, you take everything they give you

And throw it right fucking at 'em and tell 'em it doesn't build you

And no it don't ever break you, and no it can't overtake you

Life's like a bed of roses, you take the thorns and you make do

Sometimes you have to hurt for the cause to be reached

But one day you'll be stronger than all that you beat and you can say

Hook:

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight, oh, oh

It's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky oh, oh

Lift your hands toward the sky

I woke up one Sunday morning, stopped believing in Jesus

Stopped believing in churches, I stopped believing in preachers

I realized I was a teacher, not just one of the heathens

I'm born to destroy the fallacies, start creating believers

Start creating the leaders, tell 'em who they should follow

Nobody but themselves, especially if they hollow.

Especially when they empty and death reserves for fulfillment

You the only person alive who holds the key to your healing

So you take it and you run with it, and keep going even when your sun's hidden

Because the time we spent in darkness when the rain come

Is where we often find the light soon as the pain's done.

There ain't no material things in the world

That can change the fact that you feel alone

Despite the fact that it gets hard, you take it all and you still go,

Take the sun and you still grow, lose the light and you still glow

I been there, I'm still here and I know how you feel, so

Hook:

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight, oh, oh

It's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky

Lift your hands toward the sky, oh, oh!

So now I spit it for people who say their cords missing

Inspire life into anybody that's forfeiting

Cause it's easy to keep pretending that there's nothing wrong

But it's harder to keep the head up and be fucking strong

So, now they tell me, “go, Haze, they can't stop you!””

Heavyweight flow, if they can't lift you then they can't drop you

The pinnacle, if they can't reach you then they can't drop you

Man, they can't do anything that you're about to!

Hook:

Money cannot buy

All the love that's here tonight

All the love that's here tonight, oh, oh

It's just you and I

So lift your hands toward the sky

Lift your hands toward the sky, oh, oh!
