Laura Mvula - Remedy

Listen

Put a fire on me but I don't burn
Shit on my history 'til I'm taciturn
Make a mockery of reality
Generations still are recovering
Won't be long before the remedy
Time to decide on which side you wanna be

What are you so afraid of?
Don't you know what you're made of?
No time to be patient

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?

Render me dangerous human in your eyes
Suck out the air inside me yet still I rise
You surround me with guns at every turn
See the system is rigged to shoot me first (shoot me)
I can't breathe, the final curtain call
Stuck in denial until we face it all

What are you so afraid of?
Don't you know what you're made of?
No time to be patient

What are you so afraid of?
Don't you know what you're made of?
No time to be patient

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?

What are you so afraid of?
Don't you know what you're made of?
No time to be patient

What are you so afraid of?
Don't you know what you're made of?
Don't you know what you're made of?
No time to be patient

How many more must die
Before the remedy?

How many more must die
Before the remedy?
No time to be patient
Can you hear all my people cry
For the remedy?

No time to be patient
