Supertones - We Shall Overcome lyrics
rate meI've been holding back my rhyme too long, let it go <br />
And unleash the fury of my old school flow<br />
I'm no superstar, more like a John Doe <br />
But I'm badder than the water down in Mexico<br />
<br />
Oh no a rock n' roller man who's not allowed to rap <br />
But I write what I like and I like the boom bap<br />
The rhyme's in the front and the beat's in the back<br />
A truck full of funk and a page full of fact<br />
<br />
G-g-get up! G-g-get up!<br />
G-g-get up! G-g-get up!<br />
<br />
Right about now I'd like to hear eveyrone say<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
My fans got a job <br />
Are we gonna get it done?<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
<br />
I can't be shy, I've gotta come with it<br />
No fear here- I sing and I bring it<br />
In Christ you've got not right living timid<br />
He's light in the dark and hope for the wicked<br />
<br />
There's a land of the dead called planet earth<br />
And a race called man walks dead from birth<br />
And the beast and man both bear the curse<br />
Come from the womb but return to dirt<br />
<br />
G-g-get up! G-g-get up!<br />
G-g-get up! G-g-get up!<br />
<br />
Right about now I'd like to hear everyone say<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
My fans got a job <br />
Are we gonna get it done?<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
<br />
Here's what I do- I hope I get through<br />
So cling to what's true and tell the world too<br />
Cause some live in fear, oppression from peers<br />
These kids that smoke weed, these kids that drink beers<br />
<br />
Who don't wanna hear what you've got to say<br />
And they shut there ears and laugh 'cause you pray<br />
But don't be afraid- that used to be me<br />
I used to mock God but I was empty<br />
<br />
G-g-get up! G-g-get up!<br />
G-g-get up! G-g-get up!<br />
<br />
Right about now I'd like to hear everyone say<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
My fans got a job <br />
Are we gonna get it done?<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome<br />
Yes Oh yes we shall overcome
