[Verse 1: Pressure]
Another war another martyr revered
Passed the fear from their fathers then itâs lasting for years
Bullets donât discriminate the skin colour they pierce
We speak the same language brother; love, laughter and tears
Refugees trading death for a prison
While some base a set of opinions on race, sex or religion
Câmon, enough day to day stress of just living
Without giving a fuck if theyâre hated just cause they different
Letâs do it under the name of the love that became lost
Dress it up how you want, weâre cut from the same cloth
Scars of hate, frowns stitched to our faces
Canât escape the cage we forge, weâve got bars to break
For those living every bit of the struggle
Given to hustle trying to figure how they fit in the puzzle
And right now weâre in pieces and peace is the people as one
Till then weâre treated like weâre speaking in tongues so here we come
[Hook]
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
[Verse 2: Chali 2na]
Media is teaching the young, debate about belief in the one
Can make an eight-year soldier fall asleep with a gun
While tax man's hands deep in your funds, reaping your ones
Money tight like we tweaking the drums itâs like we speaking in tongues
But no book burnings or church sermons
I surf currents, my words burn like a dirt furnace
Confusion leads and anguish sells
But this music succeeds where even language fails
To convey free honest expression
Itâs a problem trying to get people to acknowledge progression
My goal is to leave a lasting iconic impression
Controlling crowds like demonic possession and ainât no time to invest in
Biting the hand that created the platform
Attaching pseudo patriotic crap to a rap song
Hoods and 2na try to unify the people as one
And yet weâre treated like weâre speaking in tongues so here we come
[Hook]
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
[Verse 3: Suffa]
I would never
Hate someone for the way they display love for someone else
(And if you do) The blame comes from the weight of the way that you see yourself
Take some of the weight off your plate by taking the hate away
And then maybe youâll make your way to start loving yourself
Fearâs a cancer, logic is a countermeasure
A property that you canât count or measure
I got a problem with people who got a problem with
The way that other people wanna live (thatâs their prerogative)
Theyâre mad at how you love, where your prayers are going
Their angerâs like a drug, theyâre mad at where you from
But fuck a redneck checking if your visaâs valid
They act like pigs and chickens Iâm sick of Caesar salad
So we seize the mallet, and we swing on the ignorant
Canât speak our language? Then weâll see if you can sing in it
Hoods and 2na try to unify the people as one
And yet weâre treated like weâre speaking in tongues so here we come
[Hook]
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
[Bridge]
They pick me up just to pull me down
March to different drums, come from all around
Itâs like weâre speaking in tongues
Itâs like weâre speaking in tongues
They pick me up just to pull me down
March to different drums, come from all around
Itâs like weâre speaking in tongues
Itâs like weâre speaking in tongues
[Hook]
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
I am, you are, we are one
Weâre two sides of the same coin, we drink from the sun
We be the left hand, right hand, right man?
But sometimes it seems like weâre speaking in tongues so let me speak on the drum
