Ours - Black lyrics
rate meSo many lies I've confessed,
So many lies made a mess.
Pushed it all into something
Pushed it all
You turned and everything went black
You turned and everything went black
Would it have tried to compete
Would it have liked but to keep
Something told me you'd hurt me
Somethings hold back
You turned and everything went black
Turned and everything went black
You pushed it all so you'd never see it
You pushed it all
Nothing but pull the strings
Danced in your soul
You're so pretty, you are
You're so pretty
You turned and everything went black
You turned and everything went black
You turned and everything went black
You turned and everything went black
(spoken)
I never sought power for power's sake.
'Cause power in the hands of a dangerous man is power in the hands of an enemy.
An enemy of yours and an enemy of mine
That manipulates kindness for his own personal highs
As he's counting lines counting numbers
Counting lines counting lines counting lines
So don't look at me and sneer
'Cause I'm nothing like you
The difference is clear
I'm your nigger you built with fear
I hope I live to see the day when your ideals go crashing away
To show you that your reflection is as cold and as black as the organs that pump blood to your veins
'Cause you see, I never wanted to own you, or them, or really anything, just me
You pushed, pushed it, pushed it away
You pushed, pushed it, pushed it away
Pushed it all into something, black.
