Preachers on the podium speaking of saints…

laughin' from the fire escape… cursing my name…
Bridge

I got a basket full of lemons and they all taste the same…

Just to have it taken away…

Some things… never change at all… Keep on building

Working your fingers bare to the bones…
C Dm. C.
Breaking your back… Make you sell your soul… Like a lung…
A# F C C
it’s that's filled with coal… Suffocating slow…
Verse 4
A# F
The wind blows wild and I may move…
C Dm. C.
but politicians lie and I am not fooled… You don't need no
A# F C C
reason or a three-piece suit to argue the truth…
A# F
The air on my skin and world under my toes…

Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes… Chaos and

commotion wherever I go… Love I try to follow… Love-eee
