lyrics

Black blood

I keep breathing despite your worst wishes

Swing, swing
You may not live to see another day
Swing, swing
Blood of my brother spills over stolen land

Now we discover a choice between you or me
Live and let live in this so called
"Land of the free"

Extend a hand to a stranger for salvations sake
A promised land, unified, one regret we made
They spoke of freedom
Then they sold it
Cruel intention
Resist or submission

Hang us out to dry
Just another lie

Swing, swing
You may live to see another day
Swing, swing
Blood of my mother spills over stolen land

Is this a fictional story
Of a race that never meant
Anything more than the "one percent"?
Are you the righteous one
Who pulled our loved ones apart?
I see that black oil
That pumps your filthy heart

Drown inside your doctrine
Cold sweat
Creeps across my brow
Loosing rhythm inside my chest
"Kill the Indian…Save the man"
Suck the marrow from my bones
Watch my body decompose

Keep it sacred
Kill the snake

Swing, swing
With our backs against the wall
Swing, swing
Nowhere left to run at all
Swing, swing
I invite you to
Swing, swing, swing
