Let Me Out (Demo)
[Verse 1: Pusha T]
Mama Mavis, oh, Mama, they tried my patience
Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
Orlando, we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors
You say I'm dangerous, I speak for the nameless
I fly with the vultures, I be with them bangers
If change don't come, then the change won't come
If the bands make 'em dance, then the rain gon' come
. (Woo!)
[Chorus: Mavis Staples]
Am I passing into the light, am I looking into your eyes? (Look into you eyes!)
All the world is outta your hands
At the pass of Another light. (Another night!)
You got to die a little, if you wanna live. (If you wanna live!)
Change- Oh change is coming
You best be ready for it
[Verse 2: Pusha T]
Look into my eyes, mama, tell me what you see
Tell me there's a chance for me to make it off the streets
Tell me that I won't die at the hands of the police
Promise me I won't outlive my nephew and my niece
Promise me my pastor isn't lyin' as he preach
Tell me that they'll listen if it's lessons that I teach
Tell me there's a heaven in the sky where there is peace
But until then, I keep my piece in arm's reach
[Chorus: Mavis Staples]
Am I passing into the light, am I looking into your eyes? (Look into you eyes!)
All the world is outta your hands
At the pass of Another light. (Another night!)
You got to die a little, if you wanna live. (If you wanna live!)
Change- Oh change is coming
You best be ready for it
[Verse 3: Pusha T]
Mama, you birthed a soldier
Born ready, born colder
Transformed to a heat holder
Ghetto teenagers with the world on our shoulders
They wonder why some are bipolar
They say it's high risk for high rollers
I've been one, so I'd know 'em
Experienced in the black market so I'd show 'em
How to build it from ground up and bounce up
Ownin' everything that surrounds up from ounces. (Aaah!)
[Chorus: Mavis Staples]
Am I passing into the light, am I looking into your eyes? (Look into you eyes!)
All the world is outta your hands
At the pass of Another light. (Another night!)
You got to die a little, if you wanna live. (If you wanna live!)
Change- Oh change is coming
You best ready-ady-ady-ady
