Hajime Hotta, Kyori the Okapi - Thinkin' Bout Tomorrow Lyrics

Living in the land of equal opportunity
But it's more like the land of gentrified communities
Truly we haven't got a clue what to do
We're fighting a toxic disease along with the flu
Fuck the catalyst, it's coming for you too
We're all susceptible to the hate we've lived through
Seen on the tv, heard on the news
Too many hate crimes with too many views
True, I'm trying, fighting, and dreaming 'bout tomorrow
But that's never given, it's earned and never borrowed
But it's passed on by all those before me
Of those who had a dream, shot down to show me
The history they taught us is more than just a story
It's lives that were lived, and not just for glory
And not to have some more sweet dreams
But for living in the nightmares that most can't unsee
These patterns of hatred, always repeating
If the only thing we do is say "I'm still dreaming"
'Cause dreams keep you sleeping and nightmares wake you up
If you ain't scared, then you never cared enough

What do you think is the state of the union
The fate that befalls the state of our union
Are you hearing the calls from each state of this union
They're crying for changes to the state of their union
So put your knee on my neck, but I'm a keep kicking
Bean bag in my chest, but my heart keep beating
Tear gas you shot off got my ears still ringing
But it's for the revolution and the names that we're hearing

So what in the world was the state of the union
The fate that had befallen the state of our union
Were you hearing them calls from each state of this union
They were crying for changes to the state of their union
They put their knees on our necks, but we were still kicking
With bean bags in our chests, but our hearts kept beating
Tear gas they shot off, had our ears really ringing
And that was, the revolution for the names we were hearing
