One Day As A Lion - Ocean View

blood done been running down

streets flood with beats

pepper spray over cracked concrete

so vicious make a rich mans neck split

underworld bout to wreck shit bet this

banks closed stomachs churning

lines and rows cops blastin out church windows

they heard word of two on a terror list

hid in the pews just two city terrace kids

one held a piece just for peace of mind

the other was spittin poems blowin minds

on the picket line

barricades lay cross made with bumpers

and burning tires

and you could smell the exhaust

and you could hear the kids screaming don't

play us, too close

you can have the mic or the heater

but you can't hold both

and they were both

and they were both

ocean of tears rise,

rise a flame to tear them down

ocean of past crimes

now fill our hearts to tear them down

the water main's cut off panic

hit the manor of the

mayor who's soft

word hit the streets

that the cops got off

they shook to rhythm of heaters

that burned like claps of thunder

you turn to look at vengeance

returned that shatter control

after the whole shock of the news

that a bomb hit the

bridge at broadway

gridlock full stop

every exit way

from Chavez to main

downtown was the same

every corner a flame

with lines of people

stripped of they clothes

freeze hold up your ID's

their houses burned as they watched

the colonel looked at his clock

and they were all

and they were all

oceans of tears rise,

rise a flame to tear them down

ocean of past crimes

now fill our hearts to tear them down
