Rebel, Rebel

Rebel, Rebel

This is what I see in the coming days
The end of prosperty
The introduction of more pain
Sadness of families
Reluctantcy to do most anything
People looking to the skies
Saying lord why is it this way
Some much pain
Too much suffering
But what can I say to a childs hungry face
This is the way it is
Or should I say....

Rebel, Rebel

Dear Family of mine Oh Rebel

Rebel, Rebel

Dear Neighbor of Mine Oh Rebel

Stand for your life
Stand for your will
Stand for your love
Stand on that hill
Be the rightous
Be the strength
Oh be for real
Fight against the fear
Fight with all your might
Fight up until your think you can't no more
And even than....

Rebel, Rebel

Dear Family of mine Oh Rebel

Rebel, Rebel

Dear Neighbor of Mine Oh Rebel

Be strong during the strom
Be strong through out the coming war
Be strong hold on through it all
Be strough live through it all

For your children
Their children
Be strong each and every one
For your children
Their children
Be strong each and every one....

Rebel, Rebel

Yeah it's a tight rythm to accompany this poem mos def..! I'd have imagine something more 'lively' and less accoustic but it's only my subjective perception, you are the one who knows the best bro'!

I see what your saying now that I read it a bit faster and think of a way to not be sued if it ever comes together with some music.
