时长: 04:05
Long Sleeves in the Summer - Promoe[00:00:00]
Bang the piano squeeze[00:00:30]
The beat out the drummer[00:00:31]
This ain't your average hiphop [00:00:32]
It got no keys to the hummer[00:00:33]
No prostitutes glocks that shoot it[00:00:34]
Deals with the younger[00:00:36]
Generation on medication[00:00:37]
To shut out the sleeping and hunger[00:00:38]
She needs the pain[00:00:40]
Her weary arms need to get number[00:00:41]
Scarred so bad she's wearing[00:00:42]
Long sleeves in the summer[00:00:43]
People wouldn't know[00:00:45]
What to say so she feels she should cover[00:00:45]
The shame inflicted by livin'[00:00:47]
In the greediest culture man[00:00:48]
Who wouldn't be disgusted[00:00:50]
By all the meat and the butter [00:00:51]
You could say she's reluctant[00:00:53]
To eat 'cus her mother[00:00:54]
It wouldn't be the whole truth[00:00:55]
Gotta dig deep in the under[00:00:56]
People fail to realise[00:00:57]
What I speak on when I utter[00:00:59]
Generation after generation[00:01:00]
Are being sacrificed [00:01:05]
Are being sacrificed[00:01:07]
Slaughtered on the altar of a massive lie [00:01:10]
Of a massive lie[00:01:18]
Play the piano for the innocent children[00:01:21]
Growing up being bombarded[00:01:23]
With an image of women[00:01:24]
So sick and twisted and[00:01:25]
It's mirrored within them[00:01:26]
Because we're celebrating death[00:01:28]
As the ideal way of living[00:01:29]
It's so backwards round here[00:01:30]
Man I ain't even kiddin'[00:01:31]
She's trapped in her body[00:01:33]
Tryin' to fly out from her prison[00:01:34]
Too close to the sun quickly[00:01:35]
Brought back to the harsh reality[00:01:36]
Burned by the cold fire[00:01:38]
Of this world's mentality[00:01:39]
Father could you tell me[00:01:40]
Why she's starvin' herself please[00:01:42]
Tell me why she's so hard[00:01:43]
On herself she's[00:01:45]
Walkin' this earth[00:01:46]
Wearin' the scars of our hell[00:01:47]
Carved in the flesh of[00:01:48]
Her arms and what next[00:01:49]
I don't know what good talkin' will do[00:01:50]
And if puttm her pain in a song will help[00:01:52]
But I can't go on 'cus the words[00:01:54]
Gettin blurred in front of my eyes[00:01:56]
As the teal's start to burn[00:01:58]
This ain't a song it's a cry[00:01:59]
For generations after generations[00:02:00]
That are being sacrificed [00:02:05]
Are being sacrificed[00:02:08]
I tell you slaughtered on the altar[00:02:11]
Of a massive lie of a massive lie[00:02:16]
'Cus how you expect me[00:02:20]
To explain to my little sis[00:02:22]
When she use her brain[00:02:24]
Ain't no interest they pick her apart[00:02:25]
Till all that remains is a clitoris[00:02:26]
Media keep telling her[00:02:29]
To change to some bigger tits[00:02:30]
Tellin' her to shut her mouth[00:02:31]
Paint and to fix her lips[00:02:32]
But her smile's a little[00:02:34]
Strained while she slit her wrist[00:02:35]
Because she hates what her belly is[00:02:36]
That's why we resist[00:02:38]
And can't get a bit of rest[00:02:39]
'Cus generation after generation[00:02:41]
Are being sacrificed [00:02:46]
Are being sacrificed[00:02:48]
Slaughtered on the altar[00:02:51]
Of a massive lie [00:02:56]
Of a massive lie[00:02:59]
Generation [00:03:01]
After generation[00:03:03]
Are being sacrificed [00:03:06]
Are being sacrificed[00:03:09]
Slaughtered on the altar[00:03:11]
Of a massive lie[00:03:17]
Of a massive lie[00:03:19]
