letra de what we know - mc mantra
[intro: michaela jayde]
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
woah-oh, oh, oh, oh
[verse 1: mantra]
the mark that we leave
might feel a little hard to believe, on this path we lead
some of us will carry scars, some will bleed
still we gotta stand steady, wear our heart on our sleeve
for those without a heart and all the dastardly deeds
that let souls dissolve so disastrously
all the way from the philippines to the middle east
to the middle of your street, we’ve been askin’ for peace
peace, a little sustenance for brothers who be starvin’ to eat
a little light for thе dark we can see
see it’s one thing livin’ through it
but we gotta lеave this place in better shape than it was in when it was given to us
[interlude: michaela jayde]
what we know
it’s time to let them go
[verse 3: mantra]
ha
so this goes out to all the hard workin’, minimum wage earnin’
folks with hearts burnin’, in their hearts searchin’
for somethin’ that’s half worth it
since what are we doin’ here if we aren’t learnin’?
we’re so busy lookin’ for something that’s so perfect
but never strayin’ too far from close to the surface
an existence without growth, well it’s worthless
i suppose perfection itself is imperfect, but what do we know?
[chorus: mantra & michaela jayde]
what we know
we’ve been shown
so we must stand up tall
to show that
we’ve grown
when we’ve grown
and we must all decide
for what will be known
[verse 3: mantra, mantra & michaela jayde]
if we’re to be known for somethin’
we better be d-mn sure we condone this function
measure up the words we relay over luncheons
and disrupt the peace if there ain’t no discussion
think of what it means to obey the old customs
remember yesterday but think of how far we’ve come since
for who we once were and how we once lived
and what it means to love and seek justice
what needs consideration, deep deliberation, reconciliation
livin’ in a land receivin’ refugees with policies
that breed discrimination, obscene humiliation
apparently this is what it means to be australian
bullsh-t, i can’t believe we’re still debatin’
we can be rebuildin’ a nation
that’s capable of one day being truly amazin’ with what we know
[chorus: mantra & michaela jayde]
what we know
we’ve been shown
so we must stand up tall
to show that
we’ve grown
when we’ve grown
and we must all decide
for what will be known
[verse 4: mantra]
now i can pay my rent
question is if i can lay my head where i made my bed
i’ve said a lot of things i should not have said (f-ck you)
there’s no control z, there is no undo
i’ve got some errors of my own i gotta own up to
if i plan on being a grown up dude, i don’t know ‘bout you
for the minute i’m just tryna get my head up
and send a little sentiment to y’all about what i’m feelin’
chameleon in my past, i used to change colour
waitin’ to adapt, presently i am aimin’
to face up to facts, eyes on the future
runnin’ shoes on my feet while i lace up the track
not hear to play the aggressor or antagonist
or come off as some radical rap activist
but we can be magnanimous if we can fathom it
reflection will step in the second we stand back a bit
[outro: michaela jayde]
oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
whoa-oh-oh
whoa
oh
whoa-whoa
