Tonalità: C minor
Verse 1
Am
I've been waitin', investigatin'
Takin' note of things that
I heard they breakin'
Lay low, wake and siren fadin'
Put on my shirt from the high rise
Playing our spies, saying bye -bye
to the rich house girls
I got no ties, as a crow flies,
just wonder why I still ain't heard
What's the word?
Little bird, what you seen,
what you observed?
Maybe you can spread some sense
round the world
And now you're free,
your tongue won't be curved
I take strength from the words I heard
Coming from a man of over 70 years
Moving mountains with fountains of wisdom
A voice of reason
going out to the millions
To keep up the pressure, no time to relax
Hot like the grass upon the
throne of the ash
The vellum is fellin',
time to tell an infellin'
Starve the disease before
it starts spreadin'
Cause, I know we can make it
I know cause I'm sure
I ain't takin' a dive,
I ain't sayin' white lies
Just askin', what's the word?
What's the word?
What's the word?
I'm on a mission,
here's my transmission
And now you see what
you're witnessin'
Dm
Just listen, the level has ris en
Am
Come hell or hot water,
my rhyme will get written, start tickin'
Dm
The countdown's clickin',
Am
you know the sayin' that goes
While it's bitten while I go to a big cat,
Dm
I've come to fight back
Am
With a tranquil mind and a rational hat
As the news gets blurred
Dm
and slurred and obscured
Am
Dm
That's why I'm askin' you,
Am
have you heard what's the word?
A little bird, where you goin'
lookin' so perturbed?
Flowin' from the south,
lookin' down in the mouth
Can't find no place to
build your house
Thrown out in the rain
by invaders that came
Yet the seed of this all
is the blood on your face
We need to change, now it's imperative
But all the red tape is more like a sedative
They give me the blues and
they won't go away
The rest of death spilled
every day in the street
Life comes cheap when legal tender
is way out of reach
Spend, spend, spend,
Dm
where's it gonna end?
Am
Now the tools going round the bend
This destination may well disturb you
Because this vision lacks every virtue
Where do we go from here?
Just disappear or reappear?
With a world much freer
Cause I know we can make it
I know cos I'm sure,
I ain't taking a dive
Dm
Am
Ain't say ing what lies, just asking,
what's the good?
Civilians don't wear government shoes
But those who do follow books and rules
It's lack of logic,
Dm
they're prehistoric
Am
Highly toxic,
what's it all gonna prove?
Wasting all our fish in the sea
Ain't you scared for this tragedy?
We just ain't prepared
Aquamarine was a dream that was faded
Illegal poison, yeah, go home unrelated
The whole episode is real X -rated
As you're glowing in the dark
Even though you start naked, so
Am
Wait, wait, wait,
And then radiate
Am
What's the word?
Dm
Am
What's the word?
Thank you for
