So many things have I seen

Open my eyes they tell a lot about me

Every day in the air that I breath

Every feeling of pain that I keep

So I sing

So many things have I seen

Open my eyes they tell a lot about me

Every day in the air that I breath

Every feeling of pain that I keep

A man of few words shoots first

Keep it honest

What you don't say will speak the loudest

Think about it

Send a shout out up to Cesar Chavez

Farm workers hard working people, they're survivors

We're seeing bias on the news

Trying to bring the truth, break the silence

Like I'm Sonny Rollins on the bridge blowing out melodics

Homicide, with every side escalating violence

Skip the bare facts, read between the lines kid

I remember promises not kept, lies tricked us

Innocent bystanders left behind as hostages

Far as the eye stretches, profits from crime ventures

I'm holding on by my finger tips

So many wasted lives in this race against the clock

I take a stand but the stakes is high

To all the crooked politicians thanks a lot

For every road not taken there's a place and time

Go and find it

So many things have I seen

Open my eyes they tell a lot about me

Every day in the air that I breath

Every feeling of pain that I keep

So I sing

So many things have I seen

Open my eyes they tell a lot about me

Every day in the air that I breath

Every feeling of pain that I keep

They call it Delta Blues

For the tragic and self-abused

Never ask why a lie seem to tell the truth

Let it go, Fella Kuti style on these syllables

You're as rich as the wealth you choose

I listen to experiences

And think of questions from a new perspective

Every second moving like I'm disconnected

Leaving bits and pieces of my life in each direction

So much to bare, release the pressure through expression

We never had a chance, growing up without finances

Ass kissing Daper Dan's looking at us slanted

They took advantage, left us over worked and empty handed

Yeah, you need to live it kid to understand it

Lets be candid, footsteps I'm walking in them

Market driven policies expanding like a logarithm

Even if I have to die or go to prison

I live my life the way I want to live it

Pure and simple

So many things have I seen

Open my eyes they tell a lot about me

Every day in the air that I breath

Every feeling of pain that I keep

So I sing

So many things have I seen

Open my eyes they tell a lot about me

Every day in the air that I breath

Every feeling of pain that I keep
