Sheep Herders

Lyrics

[Hook] …Can we say we know love if we've never had a friend? Can we know freedom if we've never been slaves? Break from the flock for finding what's beyond horizons Can we know where we're going if we don't know where we've been? Can we say we know love if we've never had a friend? Can we know freedom if we've never been slaves? Break from the flock for finding what's beyond horizons [Verse 1] Master your craft before you ask for half Just do the math You've only been in your backyard I had to laugh when I saw your staff And you expect to last, you got the nerve to act hard I been there, I'm on another planet You're left crying, stranded, but had the pleasure to touch stars I wanna sit 'cause I can't stand it Integrity's been abandoned, my back is breaking from the shoulder weight I don't care what you say I'm in the back through an open gate with a marvelous display I walked on eggshells for a day tryna stay quiet Create rise that brings fires, I won't keep silent You killed freedom for too long Caught off guard but we grew strong We want a new song to sing I won't wait for the phone to ring Please don't answer it, I know the sting [Hook] I wanna see hands raised I wanna see trails blazed I wanna see your life change, so you can see brighter days I wanna see you walk on water I wanna see you raise your daughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter I wanna see hands raised I wanna see trails blazed I wanna see your life change, so you can see brighter days I wanna see you walk on water I wanna see you raise your daughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Know where we're going if we don't know where we've been? Can we say we know love if we've never had a friend? Can we know freedom if we've never been slaves? Break from the flock for finding what's beyond horizons Can we know where we're going if we don't know where we've been? Can we say we know love if we've never had a friend? Can we know freedom if we've never been slaves? Break from the flock for finding what's beyond horizons [Verse 2] What's the reason stickmen in circles, blown down by one exhale What's your poison? Showbiz or retail? See you can do both in this world of plastic humans Learn from those before you The more you work, the more you earn The more you [?], the more you burn Stars die, if they live they die When you give, it drains life See I've given so much, I just wanna get reimbursed Before I lie stiff in a hearse, I'll find worth They say you die a little every time you give birth So I'm on my deathbed for what it's worth Gotta live out this curse I've tried truth Lost a few years trying to find youth There's many links in this chain but this one's loose So what's the use? Okay, what's your poison? Sambo or Uncle Tom? Our pigment is the poster of what we write in songs See we fight whether right or wrong… To inform the world we're still strong Better keep your wits about you Check every corner, dodge every shadow Keep your course if you're equipped for battle But don't lose Lady sings the blues at every turn We're fed fear by the news [Hook] Can we know where we're going if we don't know where we've been? Can we say we know love if we've never had a friend? Can we know freedom if we've never been slaves? Break from the flock for finding what's beyond horizons Can we know where we're going if we don't know where we've been? Can we say we know love if we've never had a friend? Can we know freedom if we've never been slaves? Break from the flock for finding what's beyond horizons I wanna see hands raised I wanna see trails blazed I wanna see your life change, so you can see brighter days I wanna see you walk on water I wanna see you raise your daughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter I wanna see hands raised I wanna see trails blazed I wanna see your life change, so you can see brighter days I wanna see you walk on water I wanna see you raise your daughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter I wanna see hands raised I wanna see trails blazed I wanna see your life change, so you can see brighter days I wanna see you walk on water I wanna see you raise your daughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter I wanna see hands raised I wanna see trails blazed I wanna see your life change, so you can see brighter days I wanna see you walk on water I wanna see you raise your daughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter Lead sheep herders to the slaughter (*echoes out*)
