Текст песни Keepin' On (Adam Ezra Group) с переводом

The wind blows gusting torrents

Past the vendors in the streets

And the morning glistens softly

Off the heros and cheats

I can hear the raucous rhythm

As my heart beats with the dawn

It’s another day out ramblin

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

And the colors burn like phoenix

On the canvas of the times

Beauty and repulsion

Hand in hand are flipping dimes

The stenographer keeps busy

But he skips the subtle songs

You’ve got to listen like the hunted

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

I’m walkin with a purpose

Though I don’t know where I go

I may hit the bulls eye running

I may never even know

Yesterday may still just happen

As tomorrow starts again

They’ll smile like I’m familiar

Like they know just where I’ve been

And I’m shaking hands with strangers

Taste their colors on my tongue

Like the sunrise on the mountain

Like the brass band in my lungs

It exhausts me to euphoria

It rings me like a gong

A peaceful bliss in whirling everything

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

Meanwhile the righteous politicians

In the end all have their price

They’re holed up with the preachers

In the alley playin dice

And it all comes down like clockwork

And the clock it plays along

It may lull the eager supplicants

But I’ll be keepin on

And our brothers and our sisters

March out over foreign lands

In the mountains and the oceans

In the jungles and the sands

And our hearts are marching with them

And we want them homeward bound

We’ll insist and then we’ll shout

And then we will tear this whole place down

And if that ain’t patriotic

Grab a book and have a read

Dissension based upon morality’s

How this country came to be

And we’ll raise a rebel ruckus

Voices howl until they’re gone

The patriotic faithful

Yeah we’ll be keepin on

And I promise I won’t judge you

By the way you comb your hair

Or how you live or who you answer to

In times of desperate prayer

If you’re afraid to chat with sinners

Then I’ll just shake your palm

I still love you sister/brother

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

Meanwhile Jesus has a theme park

And our country is a brand

Owned by fifty men in China

Who have purchased all the land

And we’re selling arms for money

'Cause that’s what we do we the best

Get 'em made by Lockheed Martin

Where the in crowd will invest

And our oil comes from lands that claim

The west’s a crooked blight

Sometimes I sit down, soak it in

And gotta wonder if they’re right

It’s enough to make you dizzy

Play the fool or play along

My dunce cap’s tall and mighty

Yeah I’ll be keeping on

I’m past the point of cryin

My reserves are in the drain

But I’m scratchin like a tom cat

And I’m tumblin like rain

Thinkin 'bout the answers

When all I’ll know before I’m gone

Is that I’m nothing without everyone

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

The crime lords got their pardons

And are now out on the prowl

The sprawling whirlwind marketplace

Sells voodoo candy now

The dandelion plagiarists

They pop up like disease

And the investment hungry pirates

Are all doing as they please

And the yawning vestal virgins

All have given up the dream

The prosthetic profit con-men

Will soon be comin clean

The road to peace is just about

As dark as it is long

With my canteen and my walking stick

I’ll be keepin on

Yes I will stand up on the mountain

Shouting let the bastards come

Dirty and exhausted

Chew defiance like it’s gum

'Cause us troubadours turn taps

Into a jubilation song

Shuffling past infinity

Yeah we’ll be keepin on

Yeah it’s music that I’m talkin 'bout

The rhythms that I breath

The shady deals in tin pan alley

To the rustling of the trees

The gun shots and the rain drops

Our sorrow and our pride

It stuffs me like a suitcase

It takes me for a ride

And our planet spits out hip hop

And the city hums in time

From the babies sleeping soundly

To the restless futile crimes

When I read the paper over bacon

When I’m shuffling through the throngs

I’m humbled by it’s beauty

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

The midnight highway’s soothing

'Cause it knows the way back home

Which is somewhere in the ether

Of our history’s churning foam

And we’re shaky but instinctual

Like the legs of newborn fawn

Balance: it’s overrated

Yeah we’ll be keepin on

The owl is looking over me

It knows me like itself

All of my desires saved

For later on the shelf

There’s dirt beneath my fingernails

There’s havoc in my yawn

I will love with crisp abandon

Yeah I’ll be keepin on

The wind blows gusting torrents

Past the vendors in the streets…
