Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
It goes one for the prophet, two for his mom
Three for the goodbye from the email
Four for the mother that birthed my friend
Five for the father, cause it taught me game
Been round the world, songs are all the same
Sometimes when I'm asleep, I still call your name
Back when I was young, I used to dream of fame
Now they all point their fingers saying, who's to blame?
Mothers put their girls into, pigtail Girls
Fathers teach their sons, how to shoot their guns
They say boy don't never cry, control your emotions
Let take it like a man, make your stand, they say
Sex and violence go hand in hand
Every man blessed, they got to be turned down
Spend through the depths of space and time
Standing three eyes blind, on the firing line
Word to my man divine, come too far Singing la-he-la-ha-he-la-la
Well, Brock is short on my full day's prayer
Just hoping that the Lord got some mercy to spare
Here goes one for the Umar, two for the Dean
Three for the angels, four for the Alameen
Somewhere between totally obscene and, perfectly clean
Got a Babylon feeling, wounds that need healing, truth need revealing
Hands need washing from, all the dirty dealing
From the floor to the ceiling, from the stage to the door
From the kings and the queens and the slaves and the whores
From every lost cause where the martyrs are found
That funky little sound that make you wanna get down
Somebody told me once, love makes the world go round
Now kids they carry pistols out on the playground
That profound, gone too far
Praying to the light from a burnt out star
Put your lights on, put down your crosses
It's time to tally up your wins and your losses
Hit one for Skylarock, two for Parking Bay
And three for all the mothers who got graves today
For all the mothers who got graves today
For all the mothers who got graves today
