"PLAY AGAINST THE RULES" - King Shaolin lyrics

VERSE I:
I´m waiting for the blues
Gonna catch them with my boots
Master´s whipping rhythm moans, that´re coming out in loops

Wrestling with my spade
It´s time to get away
I fancy that my mother´s eyes are still the same

If you take no step for yourself, It´s a shame
Hot air in my lungs has turned into refrain
I totally forgot bout´ those times, I´ve been rare
I´m laughing through the tears, cos´ now I don´t care

REFRAIN:
Go, play against the rules, that are working for them
Don´t play against the truth that they keep hiding from me
Go, care bout´ the case, If you´re legs are free, then roll

Care, Care, Care
Wanna be free about my dance, dance, dance, Hey
Dance, Dance, Dance, Hey
Wanna be free about it

VERSE II:
I'm surrounded by the steam
I can sense myself's redeemed
Mud had covered my skin tone
Street walkers ain't that free

With the train I march along
Bonfire crackling on my song
My city name is an "Animal"
They say I'm made of stone

If you take no step for yourself, It´s a shame
Hot air in my lungs had turned into refrain
I totally forgot bout´ those times, I´ve been rare
I´m laughing through the tears, cos´ I still don´t care

BRIDGE:
Slobodu nám nedokážu zobrať
A my nebudeme predsa o ňu žobrať
Počúvať niekoho kto sa chvastá
Vyvolená rasa je biela ako pasta
A pritom je len xenofóbny bastard,
Ktorý iba chlastá a pritom vraví na stráž
Nezaujíma ma aká si kasta
Keď si slobodný a bežíš
Život je len jazda, chápeš?
Toto je náš štát
