"People Of The Sun" lyrics
"People Of The Sun"
Yeah, people come up
Yeah, we better turn the bass up on this one
Check it, since fifteen hundred and sixteen, Mayans attacked and overseen
Now crawl amidst the ruins of this empty dream
With their borders and boots on top of us
Pulling knobs on the floor of their toxic metropolis
But how you gonna get what you need to get?
The gut eaters, blood drenched get offensive like Tet
The fifth sun sets get back reclaim
The spirit of Cuauhtémoc, alive and untamed
Now face the funk now blasting out your speaker
On the one, Maya, Mexica
That vulture came to try and steal your name but now you got a gun
And this is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again, uh
It's coming back around again
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again, uh
Yeah, never forget that the whip snapped ya back
Your spine cracked for tobacc-oh, I'm the Marlboro Man, uh
Our past blasting on through the verses
Brigades of taxi cabs rolling Broadway like hearses
Troops stripping zoots, shots of red mist
Sailors' blood on the deck, come sister, resist
From the era of terror, check this photo lens
Now the City of Angels does the ethnic cleanse, uh
Heads bobbing to the funk out your speaker
On the one, Maya, Mexica
That vulture came to try and steal your name but now you found a gun
You're history
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again, yeah
It's coming back around again
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again
It's coming back around again
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around again
It's coming back around again
This is for the people of the sun
It's coming back around
Of the sun

Soundgarden - "The Day I Tried To Live" I woke the same as any other day
Except a voice was in my head
It said, "Seize the day, pull the trigger
Drop the blade and watch the rolling heads"
The day I tried to live
I stole a thousand...
Black Sabbath - "The Wizard" Misty morning, clouds in the sky
Without warning, a wizard walks by
Casting his shadow, weaving his spell
Long grey cloak, twinkling bell
Never talking
Just keeps walking
Casting his magic

Metallica - "Until It Sleeps" Where do I take this pain of mine?
I run but it stays right by my side
So tear me open, pour me out
There's things inside that scream and shout
And the pain still hates me
So hold me until it...
Incubus - "Wish You Were Here" I dig my toes into the sand
The ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket
I lean against the wind, pretend that I am weightless
And in this moment I am happy, happy

Nirvana - "Lithium" I'm so happy 'cause today I found my friends, they're in my head
I'm so ugly, that's okay, 'cause so are you, we broke our mirrors
Sunday mornin' is every day for all I care and I'm not scared
Light...
