Black Patch War by Common Market
Black Patch War lyrics
guys are gonna wanna, go out and play sometime - just
take this advice i give
�possum hunters posse up, now
it�s in the name of the father we ride, right or wrong
only god�ll decide
dismiss diplomacy, don�t bother we tried
they don�t play fair, the sharecroppers profits are
marginalized
for law enforcement a farmer resort to homicide
we fought for our lives before this mess
check a storied past, patch of distress - a shred of
dignity
a scrap of prospect left in me, leave the pistol empty
shotgun got somethin� for the enemy, it�s the
black. patch. war chant bangin� on em
to fifth-third send word of another bank bombin�
ranks mobbin over the hilltop on horseback
surround the storehouse, four corners and torch that
been in the poorhouse before and i don�t want that
for my boys, hear the voice at the point of contact,
listen
don�t lose your self-respect, trying to gain revenge
advice to heed, yeah - follow the rules, i�ll lead
i plead ignorance to business affairs beyond the field
but on the real what we�re dealing with here�s
extraordinarily
heavy-handed - look where your property landed
now come play monopoly with vigilantes and bandits
i�mma stand this ground, with plans to expand the
compound
interest rise over the cries of �man down!�
empathize with the planters of antioch, we can�t stop
now
divine decree, and how
the flag of hoptown will be ours now, you�re under
siege
you�re one of these whether or not you wanna believe
pledge allegiance - come the son�ll receive, the
company be
numbered as somethin� we hung from the trees
from the seas of judah move a multitude of discontented
consider me a spiritual descendant
woe to those makin� unjust laws, what i sayeth
is like a modern-day isaiah
may the lord be the judge of my sins, look what we�re
up against
more sufferin�, no support from the government
poor and covetous, i pour a cup and it�s
not enough to fill up - we�re overrunnin� this
operation taken down, klan vandalism
a coups de gras for the law of the land�s evangelism
silent brigade engage in a whisper
send shock waves breakin� - how you shakin� a fist?
it�s the
black. patch. war chant bangin� on em
a higher callin� the fire of sodom rainin� on em
Canaan fallin� - flames rebuke the lot of ringleaders
this james b. a duke, not a king
he as savage as the pack he employed, capital gradually
voided, now flatter me or see your tobacco destroyed,
listen
don�t lose your self-respect, trying to gain revenge
keep in line, see the sign, victory is thine
he the vine, we�re the branch where the fruits borne
and some of y�all been on there too long, spoiled
rotten
the regiment developin� a loyal followin�
contest and rest under kentucky soil - not a problem
all i�m askin� for is a fair market at the auction
i put my work on the block - gimme my portion
a good return and if not, i�ll put the cross on em
target for the marlin - amoss endorsement
this manifest impressed on parchment - y�all can read,
right?
figured the herod-type particularly erudite
terms affirmed by the testament of old
where the servants learn - test �em with gold, yeah we
got that
armed for combat, over crop tax
cease the fraud, you aint god, damnit - stop that
