Skylight Lyrics

Can't nobody live a lie like us

Innocent cries when the sky light up

Saying that in God we trust

One nation with our eyes wide shut

American eyes living this lie

Land of the Native tribe

Shadow of the genocide

Bloody hands, clean suit and tie

Foolish pride

Headed for suicide

Why

Bombs in the sky over Palestine

You paid your taxes now

Look into that child's eyes

Is that your son or daughter that you see

Or you say that's the price we pay

So that we free

Funding weapons overseas

While our own community's stuck in poverty

They see the people as commodities

But the part that really bother me

They got us thinking this the way it gotta be

Can't nobody live a lie like us

Innocent cry when the sky light up

Saying that in God we trust

One nation with our eyes wide shut

Can't nobody live a lie like us

Innocent cry when the sky light up

Saying that in God we trust

One nation with our eyes wide shut

Don't you care

It's not right, no, it's not fair

One nation in disguise

Falsehood we living

Won't carry on that legacy we've been given

Global youth envision a new beginning

It was written

We the ones who can heal this

Turn it all around

Reject all the lies of those claiming they found

The laws of man, it's all upside down

Mother Earth raped, laying pipe in the ground

We can feel this

And that's a human way to be

So let our tears carry from the river to the sea

One with our relatives

Show them that we care

We drink the same water

And breathe the same air

Now it's time we remember

We in it together

And rise like flame from the embers

Keep faith through the sickness and pain

Let our hearts be the witness

And show us the way

I always say thanks God

Thanks God or Alhamdulillah

Because after 119 days of the genocide

We still have the rain, the sun, and the sea

And of course, the rainbow

All these people are displaced, in tents

But we still have there, can you see it

The rainbow

The sea over there

The borders

But also the sun

And raining

So we're so lucky

Alhamdulillah for everything

Salam

Can't nobody live a lie like us

Innocent cry when the sky light up

Saying that in God we trust

One nation with our eyes wide shut

Can't nobody live a lie like us

Innocent cry when the sky light up

Saying that in God we trust

One nation with our eyes wide shut
