letra de political - rumor

[verse 1:rumor]

ugh!they say your power is in your thumb
and knowledge is power
so if it’s not in our heads does it make us dumb?
lets go ahead and ballot, let’s give ’em some
no no no they can have it all we don’t want none
you can have the good lands leave us in the slums
you can have all the bread, just give us the crumbs
look what our thumbs have made you become
a couple of years later, a bunch of donald trumps
with swizz bank accounts and multiple pied-à-terre
have you seen the villages in the cities rear?
the government school kids scrambling for chairs
but you’ll never know cos your kids don’t school here
your term of office is coming to an end
it’s time to summon all your family and friends
cos the election is approaching again
tell us what we wanna hear and we’ll make sure you win

[hook:lady jaywah]

hear them, i hear them saying
money and power make the world go round and round
they playing all the dirty games
what we gonna do?
what we gonna do?
should we pretend that everything’s all right?
and wait for the government to change your life
shift the paradigm in your mind
what we gonna do?
what we gonna do?

[verse 2:rumor]

the nation loves me, i’m like it’s hero
i’ll provide the needs of the ordinary people
that’s what i tell them but then again my true goal
is to rob you with the help of my government bureau
but i have no inclination of telling you that
democracy’s on vacation, hush and pay your taxes
motto is “forward never, forever backwards”
appreciate your ex-gratia payments gracias
but how about a re-up
you can call it grotesque i’m not giving this seat up
go ahead and protest, y’all just gon’ get beat up
this is a lucrative business you’ll never get a piece of
do you know how many people i imprisoned?
how many more i have k!lled for no reason?
i’m guilty of treason
can’t give the power up for the above reasons

[hook:lady jaywah]

[spoken word: rumor]

i’m riding through the city, windows not rolled down
i can hear the silent chaos of the whole town
hawkers selling
trotro conductors or mates as we call them down here yelling
angry mob lynching a felon
they said he stole a fowl and that was foul
so they beat him up until he cried out loud
but really
what about the sinister minister who robbed the
whole nation of every of it’s pesewa and cedi
