the charade (made in america festival 2012) - d'angelo lyrics

[intro]
philadelphia, how y’all feel?
alright, everybody put the black fist up in the air
put your fist in the air
this for trayvon
this for trayvon, sean bell, everybody else coming from the struggle, all the fallen soldiers
it’s called “the charade”

[verse 1]
crawling through a systematic maze
(crawling through a systematic maze)
crawling through a systematic maze to demise
pain in our eyes
strain of drownin’, wading into your lies
degradation so loud that you can’t hear the sound of our cries (ooh, ooh)
all the dreamers have gone to the side of the road which we will lay on
inundated by media, virtual mind f*cks in streams

[chorus]
all we wanted was a chance to talk
instead we only got outlined in chalk
feet have bled a million miles we’ve walked
revealing at the end of the day, the charade

[verse 2]
perpetrators beware, say a prayer if you dare for the believers
with a faith at the size of a seed enough to be redeemed (doo, doo)
relegated to savages bound by the way of the deceivers
so anchors be sure that you’re sure we ain’t no amateurs
[chorus]
all we wanted was a chance to talk
instead we only got outlined in chalk
feet have bled a million miles we’ve walked
revealing at the end of the day, the charade

[bridge]
with the veil off our eyes we’ll truly see
and we’ll march on
and it really won’t take too long
and it really won’t take us very long
(doo, doo)

[outro]
revealing at the end of the day, the charade, yeah
oh, oh, oh*oh*oh*oh
instead, we only want a chance to talk
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
but we only got outlined in chalk, yeah
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
but we only got outlined in chalk, yeah
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
but we only got outlined in chalk, yeah
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
uh, y’all see it, help me out
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
(ow) revealing at the end of the day, the charade
(hey, hey, yeah, hey)
all we wanted was a chance to talk and play
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
but we only got outlined in chalk, yeah
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
feet have bled a million miles we’ve walked, yeah
revealing at the end of the day, the charade (ow, ow, ow)
feet have bled a million miles we’ve walked, yeah
revealing at the end of the day, the charade (yeah)
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
revealing at the end of the day, the charade
(revealing at the end of the day, the charade)
