Dreamer (Interlude)
[Intro: Marina Portnaya]
While the US has encouraged and supported democratic uprisings in the Arab world, the same events playing out at home have been met with batons, pepper spray, and the arrests of nearly 800 peaceful protestors on the Brooklyn Bridge
[Verse]
We live in time where the people say
"that we just ain't gonna take it"
Our time by the people, man
For my peeps and fam
For all my soldiers that be feelin' the same, man, look
We live in time where the people say
"that we just ain't gonna take it"
Our time by the people, man
For my peeps and fam
For all my soldiers that be feelin' the same, man
[Break: Marina Portnaya]
But the system is far from ready to change. It is yet to start taking people's outrage seriously -
As three years into a recession, Wall Street has still not been held accountable for triggering the common Americans' worst nightmare
[Outro]
Okay, where's the money for the hood?
Where's the money for poor people?
Where's our reparations? Where's our trillion dollars?
