bite back - algiers lyrics

[intro: franklin james fisher]
miles
they say we’re miles away from the days they used to lie in wait
snake around in the high grass
but, you know what i’ve found?
they say they moved out
but they still around and they move even stronger now
all the [?]
their stone mountains, false idols
and town halls are still standing
implanted in your point of view
wrapped around the words you use
[hook: franklin james fisher]
when your [?] sands are running out
they tell you slow down
if you want cooperation
all they do is hold out

[verse 1: billy woods]
one hand wash the other, they both wash the facе
centrifugal force and inertia keep еverything in its place
slowly, spinning in sp*ce, speeding, lead foot on the brakes
metal face, cheating’s just how you play
strange ways
monopoly, candy land, life’s just a game
count your money at the end bro
on one hand count your friends
ghosts float up out the morgue cold
come get your meds
babylon system is the vampire, wants you to let him in
police at the door knocking again and again
claws rattling, delicate as roaches’ wings
sweet saccharine, dopamine pour out the screens
distant gunfire crackling, the whole thing cracking at the seams
single action, casket, pressed and steamed
the machine is self cleaned
the nightmare is, you in somebody’s dream
[verse 2: franklin james fisher]
funny thing about that, look at anybody laugh
in the past, ain’t never been a right time
when the truth come down like the light
they gon’ shine up in your face
you better clock it with your third eye
all these n*ggas want to get into the game
just to bounce they heads and move they feet and
it’s all good till the blue light flash
and they sn*tch your ass and stomp on beat and
as the white folk watch they holdin’
they told the folk they’ll rise and fight back
but the rats and snakes about to hold our general control
the stakes are hijacked
[?] the music gonna come round
in other word i never done it from behind
don’t preach or teach or judge police
[?] your mind if you don’t bite back

[hook: franklin james fisher]
when your [?] sands are running out
they tell you slow down
if you want cooperation
all they do is hold out
if the whole world is drowning, man
they’d let us all drown
and they turned it on you
hey
[verse 3: franklin james fisher]
all in all, it’s the same condition
[?] that you can’t erase
you’re reaching out to the undead hand that you relied to police your place, yeah
rather do what’s wrong cause you know what’s right
[?] that you had to face
but when the scream don’t stop when the sound is cut
there’s nothing left but your work and the sound of a clock stopping

[bridge]
[?] shadows and the noise
it’s closing in, it’s closing in
bite back the hand that feeds you if it’s poison
bite back the hand that feeds you if it’s poison

[verse 4: backxwash]
