Lyrics

[Chorus - Maimouna Youssef] We need a miracle Spirit of the Ghost Dance Light up this prayer grass in my hand Take it to the most high We need a blessing tonight Stand by our side, side as we fight Screaming out "water is life!" [Verse 1 - Supaman] Hey yo, all around the world My sisters and my brothers hurt So I start this verse with the Heartbeat of Mother Earth I say a prayer and put it down for what's it worth For those who oppose, who only see color first For my two sons, my daughter and wife And the father of lights I started to fight, started with mics Ready to die like a martyr tonight With my fist in the sky saying "water is life" And yo It takes the nation and millions to hold us back This is treaty land, we see the scams And yo, we know the facts Evil collapses and cowers in fear The hour is near; let the world unite with the power of prayer Yeah, our family rise, defy gravity We gonna keep on rhyming and climbing and shine happily A masterpiece with my whole body glistening Ay yo, we still here, is there anybody listening? From Flint, Michigan To my Egyptian friends Minnesota, all around the world, are you listening? [Chorus x2] [Verse 2 - Maimouna Youssef] [...] Wakan Tanka We in the belly of the beast with these wicked monsters When we trying to keep the peace then they take us under Is it better a Beretta underneath my bomber? We was pleading to the governors and the Obamas We ain't even want a lot, just some clean water Just a little bit of life for our sons and daughters If a penny for your thoughts, then I'm throwing quarters Cuz they never think about the all people poorer Only rich and the white get the right to water If we feud or if we fight, we become the martyrs Throwing federal charges at Lakota laywers I salute the true courage of our red warriors Against all odds, my people pushing forward Wished we had've met the Pilgrims at the border With a travel ban, pushed them back into the water Put a sign up on the rock saying "Don't loiter" Or maybe a tall wall would have been in order Cuz we gave them liberty and they gave us slaughter No land of the free for my forefathers Now we're praying for miracles with tobacco offers To a power that's higher than any man-made office As the prophecy unfolds, as the wins and losses God trumps all self-proclaimèd bosses In the end, when they squandered all the earth's resources They will learn their children cannot eat their coffers A miracle [Chorus x2]
