Gunpowder Lyrics - The Carnival - Wyclef Jean

I asked my mother why do you cry 

she said your brother had... he just died 

Well I told him not to go outside 

he said he had to fight for his country's right 

But don't you know that mo-mother 

don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no 

Because the war is not over 

until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence 

But I smell gunpowder (pow) 

my brother's been dead ever since 

I didn't beleive it, but when I saw him I was convinced 

Two shots to the head he was already dead Lord, 

I headed for revenge in the city of Port Au Prince 

Screaming bro-brother 

don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no 

Because the war is not over 

until you can feel love, peace, and hear silence 

But I smell gunpowder (Pow) 

Zion's gunpowder (pow) 

L.A.'s gunpowder (pow) 

I wanna know why 

Christians pray for a new day 

we don't need no, we don't need no, we don't need no 

But its still the same way 

I wanna know why 

ghetto people pray for a new day 

hey, hey, heeey 

and its still the same way 

But the preacher man told me 

good things come to those who wait 

do good things come to those who wait? 

I wanna know tell me 

good things come to those who wait 

do good things come to those who wait? 

we wanna know, we wanna know, we wanna know (pause) 

Pe-people 

don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no 

because the war is not over 

until you can feel love, peace, and hear the silence 

but I smell gunpowder (gunpowder) 

Brooklyn's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

Shaolin's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

Uptown's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

Jersey's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

even New Zealand's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

Australia's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

Brixton's gunpowder (gunpowder) 

even New Haven's gunpowder
