Look Into My Eyes Lyrics - Closer Than Veins - Outlandish

Look into my eyes 

Tell me what ya see 

You dont see a damn thing 

'Cuz you cant relate to me 

You blinded by our differences 

My life makes no sense to you 

Im the persecuted one 

You the red, white and blue 

Each day you wake in tranquility 

No fears to cross your eyes 

Each day I wake in gratitude 

Thankin God, He let me rise 

Ya worry bout your education 

And the bills you have to pay 

I worry bout my vulnerable life 

And if Ill survive another day 

Ya biggest fear is getting a ticket 

As ya cruise your Cadillac 

My fear is that the tank thats just left 

Will turn around and come back 

Yet do you know the truth of where ya money goes? 

Do you let the media deceive your mind? 

Is this a truth that nobody knows? 

Has our world gone all blind 

Yet do you know the truth of where ya money goes? 

Do you let the media deceive your mind? 

Is this a truth that nobody knows? 

Some one tell me 

Oh, lets not cry tonight 

I promise you one day its through 

Oh, oh, oh, my brothers 

Oh, oh, oh, my sisters 

Oh, shine a light for every soul 

That aint with us no more 

Oh, oh, oh, my brothers 

Oh, oh, oh, my sisters 

See, Ive known terror for quite some times 

57 years, so cruel 

Terror breathes the air I breathe 

Its the check point on my way to school 

Terror is the robbery of my land 

And the torture of my mother 

The imprisonment of my innocent father 

The bullet in my baby brother 

The bulldozers and the tanks 

The gasses and the guns 

The bombs that fall outside my door 

All due to your funds 

You blame me for defending myself 

Against the ways of my enemies 

Im terrorized in my own land 

And Im the terrorist 

Yet do you know the truth of where ya money goes? 

Do you let the media deceive your mind? 

Is this a truth that nobody knows? 

Has our world gone all blind 

Yet do you know the truth of where ya money goes? 

Do you let the media deceive your mind? 

Is this a truth that nobody knows? 

Some one tell me 

Oh, lets not cry tonight 

I promise you one day its through 

Oh, oh, oh, my brothers 

Oh, oh, oh, my sisters 

Oh, shine a light for every soul 

That aint with us no more 

Oh, oh, oh, my brothers 

Oh, oh, oh, my sisters 

American, do ya realize 

That the taxes that you pay 

Feed the forces that traumatize 

My every living day 

So if I wont be here tomorrow 

Its written in my fate 

May the future bring a brighter day 

The end of our wait 

Oh, lets not cry tonight 

I promise you one day its through 

Oh, oh, oh, my brothers 

Oh, oh, oh, my sisters 

Oh, shine a light for every soul 

That aint with us no more 

Oh, oh, oh, my brothers 

Oh, oh, oh, my sisters
