DANCE OR DIE by Janelle MonĂ¡e ft. Saul Williams (from The ArchAndroid)
AbmCyborg, android, d-boy, decoy, water, wisdom, tightrope, vision,
Insight, stronghold, heartless, ice cold, mystery, mastery, solar, battery
AbmSome will pull the gun because they want to be stars
Snatching up your life into the blink of an eye
And if you see your cloning on a street walking by
Keep a running for your life cause only one will survive
War is in the street and it's an eye for an eye
Run on for your life or you can dance you can die
She's praying in the sand like she's the last samurai
It's a stick up stick up and a pick up pick up
AbmTelling lies and telling lies will put your face on fire
Run and tell your friends to never dream, never win
EbmGhettos keep a crying out to streets full of zombies
Kids are killing kids and then the kids join the army
GbRising and a waking, yes sir here comes the sun
March into the war and with the kick of the drum
DbmThe wiser simians have got the bombs and the guns
(Gb)
So you might as well keep dancing if you're not gonna run
A Abmlong, long way to fEind the one
Ebm Abm (Gb)
We'll keep on dancing till she comes
These dDbmreams are forever B
Oh, these dEbmreams are forever E
And Abmif you wanna wEake the sun
Ebm Abm (Gb)
Just keep on marching to the drums
These dDbmreams are forever B
Oh, these dEbmreams are forever Gb
AbmNow I'm not saying it's better to bailar
You can pull the trigger or you can build you an ark
My words are rather kind you keep them held in contempt
Looking for a nine and then a droid you can tempt
Zombie, zombie, zombie, where do dreams come from?
A little bird is chirping and she's singing a song
She's shaking em and waking em and giving em mas
As the clock tick tocks and the bodies drop
AbmI'm gonna lay myself so far way down right in your chops
Modern day example of the wolf vs flock
EbmFreedom necessary and it's by any means
Frozen they were stolen all the kings and queens
GbSudanese and Congolese who put the roll in the rock
From here to Sudan, Metropolis to Iraq
DbmIt's a minute to the dawn and yet the sun ain't back
(Gb)
It's still a war in all the stress and yes freaks will dance or die
A Abmlong, long way to fEind the one
Ebm Abm (Gb)
We'll keep on dancing till she comes
These dDbmreams are forever B
Oh, these dEbmreams are forever E
And Abmif you wanna wEake the sun
Ebm Abm (Gb)
Just keep on marching to the drums
These dDbmreams are forever B
Oh, these dEbmreams are forever Gb
AbmAngel, blossom, gunshot, dodging, dream, bright, beat, light, Ebm
Breathe, live, help, giveGb, focus, tranceE, wake upGb, dance!
AbmI'm praying for the man sitting without much time
May he understand the clock will never rewind
Wisen him and sharpen him and give him a motto
(Ebm)
hate no more, said he must hate no more
You see the Gbdaylight comes into the kingdom
But the kingdom's full of ignorant men
Just keep reDbmbelling away, you gotta dream it away
(Gb)
Because the weatherman on TV ain't creating the weather
AbmThis man wants to see another jubilation
And that man wants us in emancipation
And Ebmthen there is the man who wants a stronger nation
You see we really got to and i think that we ought to
GbProtect the mind from degradation
Sow in the seeds of education
They Dbmrun from us, are we that dangerous?
(Gb)
There's a war in all the streets and yes the freaks must dance or die!
