Going Nowhere - The Lions, Alex Desert

Verse One

They been telling us for years that we’re a part of something

Selling us their tears

Soldiers in their army, how they lust for fear

and we’re not gonna take it any longer

We go back so far, from kings and queens of Africa

We stand so tall.

Build up brick by brick so we could read the stars

And we’re not gonna stay down any longer

Pre-Chorus

People’ll tell you anything

Tell you what song to sing

Are we moving forward, or are we… (Are we goin'?)

Swallowed up and whole, in the belly of the beast…

You can lose your soul.

DOn’t you take their bait, have some self control…

Think they got you where they want you don’t go down, down, down.

Though the past is gone, know your history my brother

keep us strong.

And our sisters and our mothers, generations on…

will be talked of like the Queens of Mother Earth

Pre-Chorus

People’ll tell you anything…

Sell your soul for gold and tings.

Are we goin' forward or are we… (Are we goin'?)

Going Nowhere?

Going nowhere?

Bridge:

Pre-Chorus

People’ll tell you anything

Tell you what song to sing

Are we movin' forward, now?

(Are we going?) Or are we…

Going Nowhere?

Going nowhere?
