kgmeloy – April 22, 2020 – Song 22, a “Cincinnati Quarantunes” song

aw, y’all know it we are
living with a lie
i ain’t gonna take it i’m
not even gonna try

why won’t you
die for me?

everybody knows this is
oppression in disguise
i got my proof and i can
see it with my eyes

why won’t you
die for me?

awww
gimme something to believe in
some flesh that i can sink my teeth in
this ain’t no ordinary thing
this ain’t no ordinary thing

i got all the facts i need
got ’em from my tribe
truth is inconvenient
i refuse to hide inside

why won’t you die for me
it’s still the land of the free

awww
gimme something to believe in
some flesh that i can sink my teeth in
this ain’t no ordinary thing
this ain’t no ordinary thing

there ain’t nothin’ i’m afraid of
the stronger stuff i think i’m made of
this ain’t no ordinary plan
this ain’t no ordinary man

mama always said you can’t fix stupid

you might call it ugly
but i think you know i’m right i
might not have the facts straight
but i’m itchin’ for a fight

help me to understand
when you lost your soul
this ain’t about compassion
it’s all about control
all about control

gimme something to believe in
some flesh that i can sink my teeth in
this ain’t no ordinary thing
this ain’t no ordinary thing
this ain’t no ordinary plan
this ain’t no ordinary man
