ChorusI see shaDdows on the hill
Up besCide the old saw mill
Where my peGople were killed
I see shaDdows on the hillIntroD....

VerseD..I see the shadows, I see the gallows
What happens in the deep washes in the shallows
D..They don’t wanna speak about the first battles
They can only see when they’re lookin down the barrel
D..I see the shadows, I hear the shots
I feel the spirit from the fight that never stopped
D..They wanna talk about how far we got
Where the bodies dropped they built a ****** parking lot
D..And they call that survival
Put us on a mission, force fed us bibles
They put stDatues on our land just to worship false idols
Cuffs on our hands just to keep us in the cycle
D..Blood on their hands
Bodies at their feet
And as a warning they gon hang em from the trees
D..Named for the banks, rivers and streets
Nah the shadows never leave no justice no peaceChorusI see shaDdows on the hill
Up besCide the old saw mill
Where my peGople were killed
I see shaDdows on the hill VerseI’m the prDoduct of resistance, I embody who survived
I’m the strength of that spirit, I’m the voice of who have died
WDho the **** are you to civilize?
Nah we can’t rely what you recall I hear your words I see your lies
D..And in the dead of night you can hear those babies cry
You can feel those eyes from the banks where they lay beside
FDeel it in your spine when you know ya not alone
Shine bright for the shadows make it home
In arDound the granite stones
They forCever be alone
Their kiGllers get off free
But their shaDdows never leaveChorusI see shaDdows on the hill
Up besCide the old saw mill
Where my peGople were killed
I see shaDdows on the hill
I see shaDdows on the hill
Up besCide the old saw mill
Where my peGople were killed
I see shaDdows on the hillOutroD...
