Harnol Slin - Past Matters

It's a false sense of security
Thinking purely from one point of view
Because life's a two-way mirror
There's more than what just reflects you

It was guns that forged the history books
& blood that built the temples too
And it's the high life that's growing
Because they get to use & step on you

You can't deny what's really happened
You can't rely on justice from a stolen gun

Sometimes I'm fine with being happy
But then I read the news
& that wall I built comes crashing down
All those bricks I made from laughing
Are not as funny when others must give voices sound

You can't deny what's really happened
You can't rely on justice from a stolen gun

The past matters
It's horrible
It's the worst

Repeat

The same matters
They're horrible
They're the worst

Repeat

Hey, now we're calling this home
Brave you've got to go
Hey, now we're building this home
Chained legs to fashion our roads

Sometimes I'm fine with being happy
But then I read the news
& that wall I built comes crashing down
All those bricks I made from laughing
Are not as funny when others must give voices sound

The past matters
It's horrible
It's the worst

Repeat

The same matters
They're horrible
They're the worst

We shouldn't be so dumb
To think skin changes blood
Or to think others don't disagree
'Cause they've proven their love
For ruling above just about damn near everything
