By the Way Songtext
von Jeremy Loops ft. Motheo Moleko

What is your decision, she said
We′re almost there
It's the same taste of freedom
That we saw but never had
It′s the same as before
All the lanes that we draw

And by the way, we're better than this
And all along, it's been worth the risk
And some might fall, but these are the times
And we came for it, yeah we came for it
And by the way, I′m feeling torn
We′re miles apart and I can't cry anymore
You start a war, hope you′re ready to fly
'Cause we came for it, yeah we came for it


And I saw police standing five to one
She was, kneeling down, twenty five, on the ground, another
Four police pray no time to wait saying
Line up your ghosts and get out of the way
We survived with this world in a riot
We′re all criminals sold on the lie
That if you don't rock the boat
Then you′ll be safe, safe
But we're not safe

And by the way, we're better than this
And all along, it′s been worth the risk
And some might fall, but these are the times
And we came for it, yeah we came for it
And by the way, I′m feeling torn
We're miles apart and I can′t cry anymore
You start a war, hope you're ready to fly
′Cause we came for it, yeah we came for it

Found her feet turned towards the sun because
Of their guns, forty-five, on the run, she was
Just nineteen with no time to waste and
Freedom's a choice but not today
You′ve been the law, with it all, we're the riot
You're all criminals trading on the lie
That′s if we don′t rock the boat
Then you'll be safe, safe
But we′re not safe


And by the way, we're better than this
And all along, it′s been worth the risk
And some might fall, but these are the times
And we came for it, yeah we came for it
And by the way, I'm feeling torn
We′re miles apart and I can't cry anymore
You start a war, hope you're ready to fly
′Cause we came for it, yeah we came for it

Despite the sound of that pop
Besides the sound of that drop
And how we feel afraid like a knot
Despise the ground that we walk
′Cause If you jog you might be Ahmaud
If you walk you might be our Ahmaud
If you talk you might be our Ahmaud
Oh God, this shit never stops

Waste it on these broken rules it's funny how
Desperation goes, round and round
But they don′t wanna let go

And some might say, we're better than this
And all along, it′s been worth the risk
And some might fall but these are the times
And we came for it
And by the way, I'm feeling torn
We′re miles apart and I can't cry anymore
You start a war, hope you're ready to fly
′Cause we came for it, yeah we came for it
