Текст песни Mr. Washington (Nahko and Medicine For The People) с переводом

Me and Mr. Washington go forth with no real direction

dreaming of the day we drive our cars into the ocean

and all the people looking on will wonder what to say

and live confused about us 'til the day they do the same

and they will see while swimming that they are free

Reach for a solace I find only in my brother sky

we are relieved to know that someday this will pass us by

and it’s got us feeling quite alright

we have no money and we certainly have lost focus

why have we landed on a planet that’s as hopeful as this

we’ve heard the words «move westward»

Well I’ve thrown myself to the stratosphere

I’ll throw my heart to the atmosphere

and now these words are coming outta my ears:

«how did I end up here?"me and old Napoleon cry «Liberty, Oh Liberty»

the crimes committed in your name have brought me to my knees

and now I’m trembling

Malcolm, brother Malcolm there’s an X upon my door tonight

wish you were here to teach this generation how to fight

enough of all this talking

well. ..

Mr. Thomas Jefferson do you have any good suggestions

I’m trying to stay hopeful but I’ve got all this frustration

I wanna see my future get progressively better

I want to see a world where equality is what matters

let’s make the call and move forward (move forward!)

Well I’ve thrown myself to the stratosphere

I’ll throw my heart to the atmosphere

and now these words are coming outta my ears:

«how did I end up here?"I've thrown myself to the stratosphere

I’ll throw my heart to the atmosphere

and now these words you’ve been longing to hear:

«this is how you got here"Medicine For the People

we believe in freedom for all

no matter what color you are or where you’re from

or who your forefathers were

we believe the time is now for it is all we have

coming together in a sacred way

here, as warriors

waging justice with instruments of truth

Medicine For the People

passion for equality, quality of life,

for justice and liberation for all

circle up warriors, circle up

this is how you got here
