Lyrics How It Breaks - Rich Aucoin

There is a ruler who wants all the power
It's gonna take all of our
Strength to stop them right where they stand
They steal water, poison sons and daughters
Play divide and conquer, fearing what they don't understand

We cannot listen when we're shouting online
It's dividing of our progress when we're so close to find
A destination where we can align
It's over when we say so and it's already time

That's how it breaks
It's coming to be right now
I know, I know
Good god, give me just a little bit

We can stop them, we've got more in common
We gotta keep them from bombing
Killing in the name of their greed
I hear you and you hear me
Letting go of fear's the only way to be free

We cannot listen when we're shouting online
It's dividing of our progress when we're so close to find
A destination where we can align
It's over when we say so and it's already time

That's how it breaks
It's coming to be right now
I know, I know
Good god, give me just a little bit

Someone will dig it up, maybe make 'em lose their peace of mind
We wanna see it come undone by the picket sign
Someone will call it out, maybe when it's children caught behind
We wanna hear it tearing free from the thin blue line
I read the news today, oh boy, she was a young American
Oppressed by old established men
I heard the news today, oh boy, he was a young American
Killed 'cause the color of his skin

That's how it breaks
It's coming to be right now
I know, I know
Good god, give me just a little bit

That's how it breaks
It's coming to be right now
I know, I know
Take care, TCB

That's how it breaks
It's coming to be right now
I know, I know
Good god, give me just a little bit
That's how it breaks
It's coming to be right now
I know, I know
Good god, give me just a little bit
