Liam Rogers - Tribe Lyrics

Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Freedom
Freedom
At least an illusion of it
As long as I'm breathing
I'm dreaming, dreaming
American scheme
Roll up your sleeves
By any means,
Bred to believe it
Charge
For the fallen, my
Brothers and sisters
Will not rest in power defeated

Red washes away the streets as
White profits off death and disease
Blue shackles the strong into prey
Led sprinkled on children in heaps
Natives invaded
Stolen from and slaughtered
Africans kidnapped
Enslaved, sold and tortured
Ashamed of my skin
For the masses it murdered
Afraid that my roots have
Been planted by monsters

Life in pursuit of
Happiness
When hate is accepted
We forget
The words unspoken
Especially justice
In days that haven't
Been promised yet

Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Freedom
Freedom
At least an illusion of it
As long as I'm breathing
I'm dreaming, dreaming
American scheme
Roll up your sleeves
By any means,
Bred to believe it
Charge
For the fallen, my
Brothers and sisters
Will not rest in power defeated

Men
And women deployed overseas
Home of the bold and the land of the Dream
Pledging their service
Upholding our creed
Political wars
Over oil and greed
20 so veterans dead everyday
Watching the rate steadily increase
They say cowardice wasn't an option For me
Now I sleep in the street with my PTSD

Building borders
Above our egos
Dividing refuge
From the innocent
Allowing fear to
Swell and fester
Rot our cores and
Blindly diminish us

All for the good of the
All for the good of the
All for the good of the
Fate of the tribe
All for the good of the
All for the good of the
All for the good of the
Fate of the tribe

Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Gimme my
Freedom
Freedom
At least an illusion of it
As long as I'm breathing
I'm dreaming, dreaming
American scheme
Roll up your sleeves
By any means,
Bred to believe it
Charge
For the fallen, my
Brothers and sisters
Will not rest in power defeated

After the unspeakable
We'll only be screaming hope
The face of evil's laughing now
But we're the ones that told the joke
Riot into revolution
Ignite, torch it down in smoke
Hurting for a hero when
We remain our only foe
After the unspeakable
We'll only be screaming hope
The face of evil's laughing now
But we're the ones that told the joke
Riot into revolution
Ignite, torch it down in smoke
Hurting for a hero when
We remain our only foe
