Hiding under sheets with the news on repeat
‘Cause the screams and cries are hard to delete
While I’m trying to sleep, oh how could I sleep?
Laying in bed, trying to empty my head
All these acts of violence ripping this world to shreds
While I’m trying to sleep, oh how could I sleep?
Eyes don’t deserve to see life in color
Until we stop taking the lives of our brothers
Oh, fall back asleep, oh how could I sleep?
Bombs being dropped and it [sent lines of?] shock
Capable to shift my brain to think happy thoughts
While I’m trying to sleep, oh how could I sleep?
Wish there were words to say to make a change
Oh, the words to sing to end this suffering
Let’s start a revolution where we all stand as one
Cause we need to make a change for a new day
We need to be the generation that’ll awaken a solution
Cause we need to make a change
Make a change, make a change for a new day
Detached from these terrors we watch from afar
Sending prayers and wishes upon empty stars
While I’m trying to sleep, oh how could I sleep?
This guilt is a twisted privilege
Makes me thankful my strife is just a fucked up dad
As I fall back asleep, oh how could I sleep?
[x2]
Wish there were words to say to make a change
Oh, the words to sing to end this suffering
[x3]
Let’s start a revolution where we all stand as one
Cause we need to make a change for a new day
We need to be the generation that’ll awaken a solution
Cause we need to make a change
Make a change, make a change for a new day

● “Our Own House ”
[ Quotable ]
Wake up to the Sun
Clouds always come undone
You give the light I need
Like water to a seed
Read it in a tale
One too tall to be real
And proved me wrong, it seems
A heart can truly gleam
● “Not Your Way”
Directed by Marlena Pavich-Bellande & Stephen Tonti Produced by Tonya McCornell, Marlena Pavich-Bellande, & Stephen Tonti
[ Quotable ]
Lower and lower our standards go as your money grows
Fill us up with plastic and cut us up and tie a bow
But look how very far we have come
Strip us of our width, disguise it like we have won
● “Queens”
[ Quotable ]
Bought my first keys at fifteen
Not for a car, play my songs at every shitty dive bar
Big dreams in the biggest city
She don’t care if you ever make it far
Mama said, “Don’t ever lose sight
Stay true to your voice inside.
