    Hands held High (mani strette al cielo)

     
    Hands held high
     
    ...
    Turn my mic up louder,
    I got to say something.
    Light Weight step it aside,
    When we coming.
    Feel it in your chest,
    Your sylicals get pumping.
    People on the street,
    They panic and start running.
    Words on loose leaf,
    She complete coming.
    I jump on my mind,
    I summon the rhyme of dumping.
    Feeling the blind,
    I promise to let the sun in.
    Sick of the dark ways,
    We march to the drumming.
    Jump when they tell us
    They want to see jumping.
    Fuck that, I want to
    See some fist pumping.
    Risk something.
    Take backwards yours
    Say something that you know
    They might attack you for
    Cause I'm sick of being treated
    Like I have before.
    Like a stupid standing for
    What I'm standing for.
    Like this war is just like
    Another brand of war.
    Like a dozen caded rich
    And an abandoned poor.
    Like they understand you
    In the back of the jet,
    When you can't put gas in your tank.
    These fuckers are laughing their way
    To the bank and cashing their check
    Asking you to have compassion and to have some respect.

    For a leader so nervous
    In unobvious ways
    Stuttering and mumbling
    For nightly news to replay
    And the rest of the world
    Watching at the end of the day
    In the living room laughing
    Like what do we say?

    Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

    In my living room watching,
    But I am not laughing.
    'Cause when it gets tense,
    I know what might happen.
    The world is cold,
    The bold men take action.
    Have to react,
    To getting blown into fractions.
    10 years old is something to see,
    Another kid my age drugged under a G,
    Taking about and found later under a tree,
    I wonder if he thought the next one could be me.
    Do you see?
    The soldiers that are out today.
    That brush the dust with bulletproof vests away.
    It's ironic.
    At times like this you pray,
    But a bomb blew the mosque up yesterday.
    There's bombs in the buses, bikes roads,
    Inside your markets,your shops, your coves,
    My dad, he's got a lot of fear I know
    But enough pride inside to let that show.
    My brother had a book he would hold with pride
    A little red cover with a broken spine.
    In the back he hand wrote a quote inside,
    When the rich wage war, it's the poor who die.

    Meanwhile, the leader just talks away
    Stuttering and mumbling
    For nightly news to replay
    And the rest of the world
    Watching at the end of the day
    Both scared and angry
    Like what do we say?

    Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen.

    Hands held high
    into a sky so blue
    as the ocean opens up
    to swallow you.(X6)

    Da " Lebens des Galilei" di Bertold Brecht

     
    " Anghesichts von Hindernissen mag die Kuerzeste Linie  zwischen zwei Punkte die  krumme sein."
     
     
    " Di fronte agli ostacoli è possibile che la linea più breve tra 2 punti sia quella curva."
