Ghosts Of Promised Lands - Jackie Greene (杰基·格林)[00:00:00]
I live alone inside my mind[00:00:37]
Everyday is the day I die[00:00:42]
I go walking up the street[00:00:47]
Undetected in the heat[00:00:49]
With a thousand different[00:00:51]
Faces passing by[00:00:53]
They're out there hanging[00:00:57]
Posters of Jesus [00:00:58]
On my block they've covered[00:01:01]
Every wall Well I suppose[00:01:03]
We could all use a Savior [00:01:08]
So I told em to do the whole[00:01:11]
City and save us all [00:01:13]
There's a young kid wailing mad on a saxophone[00:01:17]
Someone screams "Man I dig the sound"[00:01:21]
The girls around the corner can make your nights[00:01:26]
A little warmer if you just let em take you down [00:01:30]
But you gotta let em take you down right [00:01:36]
There are some men who would lead[00:01:52]
Us to destruction They deal in dirt and pain[00:01:54]
And misery They talk the silver tongue one hand on[00:01:58]
A gun and spit lies at you and me [00:02:06]
Most people around here got no money [00:02:11]
They got chains that rain straight to drains [00:02:16]
They work for somebody who answers to somebody else[00:02:21]
And nobody knows their names It's a shame[00:02:27]
Come on come on and rise up Take somebody by the hand[00:02:37]
Come on come on and rise up All you ghosts of promised lands [00:02:46]
I'm not talking about revolution I'm not trying to make demands [00:02:57]
But I want you to know that wherever you go you got[00:03:09]
The whole wide world in your hands You got the whole wide world in[00:03:14]
Your hands[00:03:21]
Come on come on and rise up Take somebody by the hand[00:03:24]
Come on come on and rise up All you ghosts of promised lands [00:03:34]
Come on come on come on[00:03:44]
