paroles de chanson Phoenix - Carrio Xanders

I have sunken into the abyss of human validation
And you have fallen into a dungeon on your way to self-restoration
Buried deep underneath the rubble
I lay
And you, consumed by the inferno
You burn

But let me ask you this
What do you know about the birds
More specifically, what do you know about the Phoenix

Cause everywhere I turn to are men of ill-intent
And we're the ones they burn through to make it to their end
We give every part of us
Our blood, our sweat, and our tears
But trust these capitalists
To make Pounds and Pence off our fears

But I should ask you this
What do you know about the Phoenix

See, every step taken is towards the gravest of yards
And we don't deserve it when they call us the bravest of hearts
Cause pain makes or breaks
But in most cases, it shatters into pieces every weak link
So we had to toughen up

Still I ask you this
What do you know about the phoenix

It's like we are connected by the same vessel
By the virtue of the struggle, we all bleed the same
I am feeling your heartbeat across the Atlantic
As you're feeling Vannessa's over the Mediterranean
This is a network of the common man
Bound by the same seemingly impossible mission
Of breaking free from the piercing clutch
Of the oppressors of our souls

And I don't mean it poetically when I say,
"We are everybody and nobody"
"Everywhere and nowhere"
"Everything and absolutely nothing"

This is Mama Africa's invisible umbilical
Connecting babies from Kathmandu to Caracas
In unison, we possess the ruggedness of Nigerian soldiers
The wisdom of King Solomon
And the beauty of a golden pheasant
This is the moment we rise
From the ashes of our predecessors
From the hell hole of their negligences
Don't sell me pacifism
I want the sword and the dichotomy it represents
Cause violence begets violence
And cowardice doesn't win wars
So leave me and let me burn to the ground
Cause only then...
Then and only then do I come alive

What do you know about the Phoenix
