Tears

歌詞

"At midday today, some Americans attended memorial services for victims of Tuesday's acts of terrorism. Thousands gathered at Chicago's Daily Plaza. Hundreds more looked on from the windows of surrounding office buildings. Many waved flags, and traffic came to a complete standstill. On the rooftop of City Hall, which faces Daily Plaza, a police sharpshooter watched the crowd, even as he saluted the flag. After a minute of silence, church bells rang." {Ain't no need in all the tears, oh no no, yeah yeah Yeah cause things will be better tomorrow} [Chorus: repeat 2X *sung*] No need for tears, no need to cry No matter what we face, we shall get by When the problems you face are too much to bear Know I'll be there [KRS-One] Hold that head up y'all, don't get fed up y'all C'mon let's get up y'all Make that bed up y'all, life is a set-up y'all Sadness comes from a lack of knowin, not knowin where the one that you love is goin We all gonna reap what we all are sewin There is no death, just constant growin We can't stay here forever We all gotta go to a place we believe is better So why be sad, why be mad Now you can see it ain't about the cheddar It's all about the time that we spend together Not the rhyme or the crime or the Gucci sweater The house that's built on a rock can stand the weather Faith, can stand the weather But is your house, upon the rock Or is it on sand and about to drop Here is the question that you got to ask Do I live for today or do I live for the past? Think fast, but do not hurry Life is a class and we should not worry But tell me, how long you gonna ignore Tell me how long you gonna ignore God's law? How long can you really endure Livin like pimps, livin like whores The choice is yours, or really ours Think about this while you lay the flowers on the grave, uh, let's talk about how you behave, uh Do you come out the neighb' or out the cave? Better change your ways, we comin up on some stranger days [Chorus] [KRS-One] Uhh, uhh Don't step where the danger lays or danger lies Open them EYES UP, better to RISE UP, WISE UP Raise your MINDS UP Look to the left, look to the right Pray in the day and the night Be prepared for the fight, not scared of the fight He's the way, the truth AND the light J to the E to the S to the U to the S You can remove the stress Yes, we do need you here Yes, we wanna be free from fear Yes, we wanna start seein clear Havin you here, not over there Lookin around sayin where, does anybody care? Yeah, I'll be there At the door, not at the war At Matthew 5:44 "But I say, unto you Love your enemies, bless them that curse you Do good to them that hate you And pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you" This goes for them terrorists too But them publicans, done put themSELVES up above again Lookin for blood again, hate no love again Got them soldiers runnin in, with a gun again With a ton of sin, in a holy war, how we gonna win? I think it's time for KRS-One again [Chorus] - repeat 2X [KRS-One] The time is now, you gotta make your choice Which side are you on? Turn now to Matthew 5:46 "For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your breddern only, what do ye more than others do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect; even as your FATHER which is in heaven, is perfect.." {*echoes*}
