Remedy Songtext
von Laura Mvula

Listen

Put a fire on me but I don′t burn
Shit on my history 'til I′m taciturn
Make a mockery of reality
Generations 'til a recovery
Won't be long before the remedy
Time to decide on which side you wanna be

What are you so afraid of? (what are you so afraid of?)
Don′t you know what you′re made of? (don't you know what you′re made of?)
No time to be patient (no time to be patient)

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy:?
How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?


Render me "dangerous human" in your eyes
Suck out the air inside me and still I rise
You surround me with guns at every turn
See, the system is rigged to shoot me first (shoot me)
"I can't breathe", the final curtain call
Stuck in denial until we face it all

What are you so afraid of? (what are you so afraid of?)
Don′t you know what you're made of? (don′t you know what you're made of?)
No time to be patient (no time to be patient)
What are you so afraid of? (what are you so afraid of?)
Don't you know what you′re made of? (don′t you know what you're made of?)
No time to be patient (no time to be patient)

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?
How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?


What are you so afraid of?
Don′t you know what you're made of?
No time to be patient
What are you so afraid of? (what are you so afraid of?)
Don′t you know what you're made of? (don′t you know what you're made of?)
No time to be patient

How many more must die
Before the remedy?

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
(No time to be patient)
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?
(No time to be patient)
