peace for the people - kevan krueger lyrics

[intro]
peace, peace, peace
peace, peace, peace for the
peace, peace for the pe*
peace for the people
peace, peace, peace
peace for the people
peace, peace, peace
peacе for the people
pеace, peace, peace
peace for the people
peace, peace, peace
peace for the people, yea

[verse 1]
i just want peace for the people
who are treated unequal
cause we’re all god’s children
battling our own evils
i’m not perfect
i’m a sinner, got my demons
and i can see them
so i try to weed them
white man in the ‘burbs
so i got resources
a house with three stories
clean water out my faucet
wouldn’t say i’m living lavish
but comparing that to the average
black man
living in the inner city
i got more and then some really, really, really
[hook]
peace, peace, peace
peace, peace, peace for the
peace, peace for the pe*
peace for the people
peace, peace, peace for the
peace, peace for the people
peace for the people
peace for the people
peace for the people (i don’t know your life)
peace for the people (i don’t know your story)
peace for the people (but i can learn your history)
peace for the people (cause your history’s our history)
peace for the people
peace for the people, yea

[verse 2]
250 years in some chains, give or take
working white man’s plantations through enslavement, payed with pain
cracking whips and separated from the land they came from
then saved by honest abe, that’s all we’re taught and that’s dangerous
rosa parks could have gave up her seat, mlk was the savior we needed
and just like that, segregation was illegal, and for the first time ever, all people were equal
living under one roof, yet my home town only had one black teacher
one percent black and two latino while providence is thirteen and forty*two, sounds reasonable
could be a coincidence, i suppose, it’s feasible, and that’s how we grow up, don’t question, just keep going
actuality, that’s life for most whites, suburban kids with a token black on sight
his parents helped with college, still got some debt, but in the end, odds are he’ll profit
his counterpart may have got same knowledge but with no inheritance he’ll stay impoverished
dragged down by the same system that gave his grandfather a collar
[chorus]
peace, peace, peace
peace, peace, peace for the
peace, peace for the pe*
peace for the people
peace, peace, peace for the
peace, peace for the people
peace for the people
peace for the people
peace for the people (right, right, because i shouldn’t be numb to your racist comments, right)
peace for the people (shut up and dribble)
peace for the people (people are dying in vain)
peace for the people (get that son of a b*tch of the field)
peace for the people
peace for the people, yea

[outro]
man, f*ck this sh*t
