Labour Pains

We can place the blame, but it stays the same
 Remain in chains as we pray for change
 Make us all forget about the basic things
 Like this place I been where the lakes and streams
 Connect as one body of an ancient being
 And let the suns hot beams wake your dreaming
 Embrace the feeling, taste the freedom
 Replace the seedlings that we take from Eden
 Cuz they grow to become what we're make-believing
 And our souls will be numb if we take this beating
 Harass your brain with aspartame, MacDonald's beef, and acid rain
 Don't follow sheep, unlatch the gates, and we'll all fall asleep
 And pass away
 My policy's to relax and play, cuz we'll all be free in the last of days
 Scenes in the withering rain
 Seem like a sad movie'sain
 But tame moments in a life obscure
 Despite the blur I reply affirmative sir!
 My head to the pleasure of clouds
 In an effort to move the crowds
 Wipe sweat from my weathered brow
 Better reload the tank and crank it to loud
 Smell the daffodils lying in the grasses
 Under shrapment of a cold-blooded fascist
 Pay your taxes, release from laxatives
 Stuck in class living life like a masochist
 Travel the caverns within a psycho babble
 Just words from the herds 'a grazing cattle
 Fuck it
 Change the channel shift the tides
 Shake the lives of those who don't abide
 We work, we breathe we eat we sleep the earth
 The trees we need ta keep observe then breathe in deep
 to speak these words
 We work we breathe we eat we sleep the earth
 The trees we need ta keep observe then breathe in deep
 to speak these words
 These words
 I was born, a child of his own, sworn to exile and a broken home
 Dysfunctional prone, I come on like so?
 All alone and own the throne through the unknown
 Now if only the sun, shined on my sill
 I might of cherished love and follow my free will
 The evil within, cuz people live in sin
 Yo we're like mine a' kin's don't manage a grin
 I cannot defend, or even pretend
 I like the trend of this life again
 So I fight with my pen to enlighten a friend
 Niggaz by my right to spy to my defend
 And even light can bend I'm type to condemn
 And every cent we spend can prevent the end
 Extend my hand and defend the plan
 We can mend the dam if we understand
 Don't you want more from a lifetime of toil
 Than a pension plan, an pipelines or oil?
 The right kinda soil, love the earth and grass
 Learn the different between old birch and ash
 Most working class folks are getting raw
 Every fed-end bob's got dead-end job
 Go to school for degrees, pay your dues and fees
 Diploma on your wall but still short on rent
 See you choose to believe all the news that you read
 Think you know it all but feel sort of empty
 Mortal men bleed and live a cruel joke
 While resorts for MC's get ridiculed most
 These lyrics show quote ain't false alarms
 It's a call to arms, from the mall to farms
 Small or large, we're all part of the rhythm
 We're all in charge of this garden we're given
 We work, we breathe we eat we sleep the earth
 The trees we need ta keep observe then breathe in deep
 to speak these words
 We work we breathe we eat we sleep the earth
 The trees we need ta keep observe then breathe in deep
 to speak these words
 These words
 We work
 We breathe
 We eat
 We sleep
 The earth
 The trees
 We need
 To keep
 Observe
 Then breathe
 In deep
 To speak
 These words
 These words
 These words
 These words
