I've met some people along the way, Some of them split some of them stay, Some of them walk some walk on by, I've got a few friends I'll love till I die From all of these people I try to learn, Some of them shine some of them burn, Some of them rise some of them fall, For good or bad I've known them all
preciso amar as pessoas como se não houvesse amanhã Porque se você parar para pensar, na verdade não há
SAME THING
Somewhere between prayer and revolution
between Jesus and Huey P. Newton
that’s where you find Jonny 5 shoot shootin
water guns at the audience while ya scootin’
your gluteous max due to the fact that I’m tootin’
on the horn gonna warn you that I’m rootin’
for the other team in the culture wars
so I stab the beast belly while the vulture roarsYO JOE!
let it blow with convulsive force
til walls fall off their false supports
til Jericho’s aircraft carriers alter course
and all brave young Americans are called ashore
cause we’ve already lost the war they keep wagin
splattering the streets in battles that keep ragin
bloodyin each page of the story that we’re studying
each day the same just the names keep changinHook:
saying the same things over again
repeatin the same slogans we don’t know where we’ve been
We’ve been all over the globe on our government’s funds
leavin man woman and child dead bloody and numbsaying the same things over again
repeatin the same slogans we don’t know where we’ve been
we’ve been overthrowing leaders with legitimate views
democratically elected but we didn’t approve….
verse 2How many times can the line divide
how many wars to uphold some pride
fears uncontrolled just swoll the tide
of blood in the streets while the people dieIma keep on tryin
longs as suffering’s multiplyin
and why not
souls get tossed and left out to rot
my backs broad enough to help left your crossas long as you help with mine
the process of healing will take some time
to see the pain on your face is the same as mine
not a game or a race but the stake is high
we maintain our mistakes for the sake of sides
as long as it takes I”ll say it one more time
as long as it takes I’ll say it one more time
as long as it takes I’ll say it one more timeHook
verse three
we need money for healthcare and public welfare
free mumia and Leonard Peltier
human needs not corporate greed
drop the debt and legalize weedwe say yes to grassroots organization
no to neoliberal globalization
bring the troops back to the USA
and shut down guantanamo Baythe same things over again
my throat’s so sore from shoutin no war for the soldiers again
lookin for cloud cover when the explosions begin
lookin the crowd over wonder if you where we’ve been
we’ve been all over the globe Iran to Nicaragua
guatamala Angola grenadaDominican republic Haiti chile
It don’t stop and it won’t stop unless we keep
Hook
Who let’em overthrow Jacobo Arbenz
Who let’em overthrow Mohammad MosaddeqWho let’em assassinate Salvador Allende
I didn’t let them but they did it anyway
Who let’em overthrow Kwame Nkrumah
Who let’em overthrow Aristide
Who let’em assassinate Oscar Romero
I didn’t let’em but they did indeed!
don’t let them assassinate Hugo Chavezdon’t let them assassinate Evo Morales
bring back Martin, Malcolm, Medgar,
Hampton, Goodman, Schwerner, Chaney

Lyrics
— Same Thing - Flowbots
we cut the legs off of our pants
threw our shoes into the ocean
sit back and wave through the daylight
sit back and wave through the daylight
slip and slide on subway grates
these shoes are poor mans ice skates
fall through like change in the daylight
fall through like change in the daylight
i miss yellow lines in my roads
some color on monochrome
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
maybe i’ll paint them in myself
these sidewalks liquid then stone
building walls and an old pay phone
it rings like all through the daylight
it rings like all through the daylight
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home
I have five clocks in my life
and only one has the time right
i’ll just unplug it for today
ill just unplug it for today
open hydrant rolled down windows
this car might make a good old boat
and float down grand street in daylight
and float down grand street in daylight
and with just half of a sunburn
new yellow lines that i earned
step back and here comes the night time
step back and here comes the night time
and in the daylight we can hitchhike to maine
i hope that someday i’ll see without these frames
and in the daylight i don’t pick up my phone
cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home
Tire suas mãos de mim
Eu não pertenço a você
Não é me dominando assim
Que você vai me entender
Eu posso estar sozinho
Mas eu sei muito bem aonde estou
Você pode até duvidar
Acho que isso não é amor.
Será só imaginação?
Será que nada vai acontecer?
Será que é tudo isso em vão?
Será que vamos conseguir vencer?
Nos perderemos entre monstros
Da nossa própria criação
Serão noites inteiras
Talvez por medo da escuridão
Ficaremos acordados
Imaginando alguma solução
Prá que esse nosso egoísmo
Não destrua nosso coração.
Será só imaginação?
Será que nada vai acontecer?
Será que é tudo isso em vão?
Será que vamos conseguir vencer?
Brigar prá quê?
Se é sem querer
Quem é que vai
Nos proteger?
Será que vamos ter
Que responder
Pelos erros a mais
Eu e você?
