Carpenters - Carol Of The Bells lyrics

Hey ya'll

Come over here, check this out

And gimme a minute of your time, but don't doubt

Anything that I tell ya'll, listen up closely

It's something ghostly, my ancestors told me

Way back before we walked the earth

It was so much cleaner cause it wasn't disturbed

But there was still hatred and strugglin' for our color

Cause if you had nothing you were bound to smother

And I don't know why, cause helping hands should be a must

It was written on the manuscript, in the book you trust

Unless it's all just a way to get us arguin'

Believe what you feel, even if it's a life of sin

Hey ya'll

Everybody gotta watch they back

We alone, so watch your back

Hey ya'll

Everybody gotta walk in they own path

But at the end, you can't go back

Ever since there's been a jail cell

Murder's been committed

Thou shalt not kill, and who's the one sinnin'?

At the end of all of this, will they be judged?

Punished for the life they took with no grudge

Nowadays, things sure ain't changed

There's a whole lot of states allowed to fry your brains

That's cause lately we just burn it away

Let them build they own prisons where their ass can stay

It's a wonder how we let things happen

I ain't special

But I enjoy takin' it to another level

Bad choices lead to a terrible afterlife

So, just learn your wrongs from right

Hey ya'll

Everybody gotta watch they back

We alone, so watch your back

Hey ya'll

Everybody gotta walk in they own path

But at the end, you can't go back

Hey ya'll

I don't mean to get ya thinkin' about

Things that's gonna get ya down and out

There just things I had to get up off my chest

Cause I'm trying to relax and just do my best

I don't wanna take a situation, and turn it upside down

I just feel this world's fuckin' around

I mean, who am I to judge?

I just, I was raised to be strong enough

Hey ya'll

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Hey ya'll

My ancestors got me down on my knees prayin'

Hey ya'll

They keep tellin' me to spread the word

Hey ya'll

Cause when they come their gonna test what you have learned

Hey ya'll

Everybody gotta watch they back

We alone, so watch your back

Hey ya'll

Everybody gotta walk in they own path

But at the end, you can't go back

Hey ya'll

Hey ya'll!

Retaliation, what now bitch!!
