War Drums
I'll tell you a little story
I'll tell about how it changes
The men got all the glory
The rhythm is a place of freedom
But if they don't know
Then they won't grow
The seeds we sow
Are far from nourished
(Hard times, yeah)
Though we've seen it all before
(Hard times, yeah)
Not running anymore
(Hard times, yeah)
Get yourself up off the floor
(It's our time, yeah)
Can you hear the drums of war?
Recollect (war) , recollect (war) , recollect
Tell me what you know about war
Recollect (war) , recollect (war) , recollect
You don't know a thing about war
Recollect (war) , recollect (war) , recollect
You don't wanna know about war (recollect)
'Cause this is your war (recollect, recollect)
Recollect
Recollect, recollect, recollect
Recollect, recollect, recollect (rumpupapampum-pum)
Recollect, recollect, recollect (rumpupapampum-pum)
Recollect, recollect, recollect
You ain't gotta speak my language
'Cause you know what I mean
I'm gonna make you understand it
And know that you feel it too
If they don't know
Then how do we grow?
It's time to show
It's time to stand up, nourish, flourish
(Hard times, yeah)
But we've seen this all before
(Hard times, yeah)
Not running anymore
(Hard times, yeah)
Pick yourself up off the floor
(It's our time, yeah)
