Asher Roth Sour Patch Kids
Verse 1
Use the eyes of the owl (it's a foul batch)
The sour patch kids got me out of wack
And out of gas
The hour glass spills as I'm left on the vast sea without a vest
Lost my train of thought
My brain can not be bought
Trained to train em to operate with authority
to che you may
To the leaders I am scary
I
Pose a threat to those who get to close for comfort
And wont conform
Come forward
Sworn on my unborn son if there is one more war I will come for
thee
Poor get poor, the rich just get richer
Get the gist
You see the big picture?
China's ditched from a shake on the Richter
Mother earth shrugs and we all get evicted
This some sick shit
Slightly twisted
Information from our nations capital
Capital is all the captain calls for
They just want more (and more)
And more (and more)
And more (and more)
And more (and more)
And more (and more)
Chorus
Take me away
Take me away from here
Take me away
I don't hear you
Verse 2
My people crying, and be dying,while they be dining in the islands,
drinking wine with their wives like everything is fine
Denying that they fightin for the their lives, every night to survive
since the beginning of time
Aye-yai-yai
Can't believe the evil that feeds off this so called American dream
Lies and deceit make all the Americans seem like blood-sucking
money hungry fiends
But money doesn't mean
A damn thing to me
I just want to be
I want to be free
But unfortunately a fortune is what you need
Cause the fortune 500s run the country
It's one company
If your not a company
Would you mind grabbing me a cup of tea?
If we go hungry, in our own country
I wonder what's it's like living in Hungary
Yeah, it isn't funny, but it's coming
It's about to get ugly
Streets turn to a game of rugby
Chorus
Verse 3
We're buying bubbly and making rain 100s
Is it just me or is that some dumbshit
Yo what the f..ck
Ho hum
Little dumbshit
Lets go
(I know you can think of something)
Donate your dollars
Raise a dollar
Help a mother
Save a father
Cause poverty is probably our biggest problem
And it ain't gonna stop with Obama
To save the world we must start at the bottom
Chorus
