letra de 50 foot woman - time + giuseppe

[verse 1: time]
she’s a 50 foot woman standing in the corridor
she’s a 50 foot woman standing in the ninth ward
the highway’s gridlocked the houses are boarded
they say the levees broke but the truth’s contorted
she went to the superdome and ripped off the roof
aid never came the dead bodies were the proof
blackwater was there k!lling people that’s the truth
but they only want to talk about looting on the news
they blew up the levees back in the 20s
and nothings really changed the world’s still about money
in 65 her mother betsy came
how many tears can one city rain?
there’s only so much that prayer can do
so why pay taxes when they’re not there for you
she’s a 50 foot woman with only one eye
so tell me god why did 2000 die?

[hook: giuseppe]
when that 50 foot woman came
she wasn’t nothing nice
drew souls of 2000 in her veins
and i can’t breath cause i’m drowning in the rain

[verse 2: time]
new orleans spells out no
also neglecting others but what for?
how could you be a refugee in your own country
maybe that’s why fema left them alone and hungry
when the food don’t come you got to go get some
it’s either starve or loot, it’s easy to pick one
5 years later and it’s still like a ghost town
most the locals gone, public schools are closed down
they say the city’s back but no one can get back
families separated, lost child can’t build that
after mardi gras cameras off parties stop
tourists go home looking hardly distraught
volunteers rebuilding one house at a time
while the government one give anyone a dime
even a hurricane got an eye so why we blind
i know you’re there just give me a sign

[hook: giuseppe]
when that 50 foot woman came
she wasn’t nothing nice
drew souls of 2000 in her veins
and i can’t breath cause i’m drowning in the rain

[verse 3: time]
that 50 foot woman came in a black dress
with a black bouquet leaving nothing left
200 miles per hour was the speed of her breath
and we only fought back with excuses and neglect
my friend was there when the waters receded
a war zone and tombstones is how he was greeted
even though it seemed that luck and hope had missed them
i know there’s a god cause they were optimistic
insurance won’t pay for your house you get shipped out
you lose your whole life get 2 grand and your heart ripped out
tents went up and so did the fences
it’s apartheid to hide the homeless census
real terrorists sign bills and laws
and worry about profit instead of a cause
there’s a city down south and they need out help
we don’t need war, we need to rebuild

[hook: giuseppe]
when that 50 foot woman came
she wasn’t nothing nice
drew souls of 2000 in her veins
and i can’t breath cause i’m drowning in the rain
