This is a "Cold War"

"Cold War"(by Janelle Monae)

song lyrics

 

So you think I'm alone?

But being alone's the only way to be

When you step outside

You spend life fighting for your sanity

This is a cold war

You better know what you're fighting for

This is a cold war

Do you know what you're fighting for?

If you want to be free

Below the ground is the only place to be

'Cause in this life

You spend time running from depravity

This is a cold war

Do you know what you're fighting for?

This is a cold war

You better know what you're fighting for

This is a cold war

You better know what you're fighting for

This is a cold war

Do you know what you're fighting for?

Bring wings to the weak and bring grace to the strong

Make all evil stumble as it flies in the world

All the tribes comes and the mighty will crumble

We must brave this night and have faith in love

I'm trying to find my peace

I was made to believe there's something wrong with me

And it hurts my heart

Lord have mercy, ain't it plain to see?

That this is a cold war

Do you know what you're fighting for?

This is a cold war

You better know what you're fighting for

This is a cold....

This is a cold war

You better know what you're fighting for

Do you know? It's a cold...

Do you?

Do you?

It's a cold ...

You better know what you're fighting for

"Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Simon & Garfunkel

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all

I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you

I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way

See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

"Let it Be" by Paul McCartney

WHEN I FIND MYSELF IN TIMES OF TROUBLE
MOTHER MARY COMES TO ME
SPEAKING WORDS OF WISDOM... "LET IT BE"

AND IN MY HOUR OF DARKNESS
SHE IS STANDING RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME
SPEAKING WORDS OF WISDOM ..."LET IT BE"

LET IT BE..... LET IT BE .....LET IT BE .....LET IT BE;
WHISPER WORDS OF WISDOM, "LET IT BE"

AND WHEN THE BROKEN-HEARTED PEOPLE
LIVING IN THE WORLD AGREE,
THERE WILL BE AN ANSWER; " LET IT BE"

FOR THOUGH THEY MAY BE PARTED,
THERE IS STILL A CHANCE THAT THEY WILL SEE;
THERE WILL BE AN ANSWER.... LET IT BE

LET IT BE.... LET IT BE ....LET IT BE..... LET IT BE ;
THERE WILL BE AN ANSWER ; "LET IT BE"

AND WHEN THE NIGHT IS CLOUDY,
THERE IS STILL A LIGHT THAT SHINES ON ME ...
SHINE UNTIL TOMORROW ; LET IT BE

I WAKE UP TO THE SOUND OF MUSIC...
MOTHER MARY COMES TO ME,
SPEAKING WORDS OF WISDOM; LET IT BE

LET IT BE ....LET IT BE.... LET IT BE.... LET IT BE;
WHISPER WORDS OF WISDOM ...LET IT BE
