《With God On Our Side》歌词

[00:00:00] With God On Our Side - K'naan (克南)

[00:00:09] It's a movie and the whole

[00:00:11] World is viewing it

[00:00:12] And the popcorn is dreams

[00:00:14] Torn but we're always chewing it

[00:00:16] They said dishonest by god but

[00:00:19] The costumes by the devil

[00:00:20] And the screenplay is adapted

[00:00:23] From a book that's embezzled

[00:00:25] This is where I grew up

[00:00:27] This is where I grew proud

[00:00:29] This is where neighbors never

[00:00:31] Say music is too loud

[00:00:33] This is where the streets have

[00:00:34] No name but they have history

[00:00:37] This is loss is victory

[00:00:40] Oh my name it ain't nothing

[00:00:44] My age it means less

[00:00:48] The country I come from

[00:00:52] Could be like the rest

[00:00:56] I was taught and brought

[00:00:58] Up there laws to abide

[00:01:04] And the land that I live

[00:01:06] In has god on it's side

[00:01:13] I was young I grew

[00:01:14] I could tie my shoe

[00:01:16] I was blind but I knew that

[00:01:19] I would always see blue

[00:01:20] Blue seas I see through on

[00:01:23] The bottom I'll meet you

[00:01:25] And when we come up for a breath

[00:01:26] Would you mind if I kiss you

[00:01:29] Childhood came up for the kiss

[00:01:30] But it slips it's pain in with mist

[00:01:33] And the sunny skies came and I missed it

[00:01:36] Vanished and when swept

[00:01:38] Landed we slept in the arms

[00:01:40] Of convenience blanket obedience

[00:01:44] Now to some of the americans

[00:01:48] War had it's day

[00:01:52] And the civil war too was soon laid away

[00:02:00] And the names of our warlords

[00:02:04] I was made to memorize

[00:02:08] With guns in their hands they said

[00:02:12] God's on their side

[00:02:17] I had an undying wish

[00:02:19] To keep from dying

[00:02:21] I had an untimely hitch

[00:02:23] Keep me from climbing

[00:02:25] But I climbed a hitch

[00:02:27] Itself and I tried flying

[00:02:29] I had an uprising in my soul

[00:02:33] The left was fight in the right

[00:02:35] And the right was fight in the light

[00:02:37] And the light was blind in the night

[00:02:38] And the night woke up in tears

[00:02:41] When my fingers went to wipe them

[00:02:42] They became a poem but to write then

[00:02:44] They would have to speak

[00:02:45] Tears in another language

[00:02:47] That would take years

[00:02:48] So now as I'm leavin'

[00:02:52] I'm weary as hell

[00:02:56] The confusion I'm feelin'

[00:03:00] Ain't no tongue can tell

[00:03:04] The words fill my head

[00:03:08] And fall to the floor

[00:03:12] If god's on our side then

[00:03:16] Would you ever need war
