Lyrics Rewrite It - Mario

They got us, yeah
Got us stuck in a system
That we′re about to get out of
That's word to my maker
The story was made up
How do you be sleeping?
My people need to wake up

You play with your life
Then they give you life
Or they take your life, how you gonna fight?
Not with guns and weapons
See that brother you just killed?
Can′t leave his nose bleeding
He a soldier, you gonna need him

So fuck the facades and reparations (fuck it)
Won't let you design my revelation (fuck it)
You don't understand our reservation (you don′t)
I won′t be asleep
I wanna see us like we're kings and queens, our proclamation
My son′s and daughter's procreation
Uncover your eyes, you′ll see the vision
Uncover your eyes, it's just the beginning

Rewrite (rewrite)
Rewriting the whole damn history
Rewriting the things that were taught to me
You see the whole damn world
It′s time for us to rewrite it (rewrite)

Rewriting, we're rewriting the whole damn history
We're rewriting the lies that were sold to me
So come on, rewrite it (rewrite it)
Rewrite, yeah rewrite it

Yeah, put some respect on my case
They should never get out
With their families just laughing
While mamas cry over caskets
It′s just that real, there′s no doubt
We just 'bouta wild out

So fuck your facades and reparations (fuck it)
Won′t let you design my revelation (fuck it)
You don't understand our preservation
No I won′t be asleep, no, no

Don't tell me how to express my pain
(Don′t act like you know it)
You know it ain't fair, you couldn't handle this hell
You see all this love in the world
Maybe if you look deep inside of your soul
It will help you see the light, oh

Rewrite it (rewrite)
Rewriting the whole damn history (my story)
Rewriting the things that were taught to me
You see the whole damn world (whole damn world)
It′s time for us to rewrite it (rewrite it)

Rewriting
We′re rewriting the whole damn history (yeah)
We're rewriting the lies that were sold to me (to me)
So come on, rewrite it (rewrite it)
Rewrite, yeah rewrite it (yeah rewrite it)
