Wyclef Jean - Gunpowder lyrics
[Incomprehensible] as we try to stay alive
 We bring you culture, nu tunes
 Gunpowder massive, [Incomprehensible]
 [Incomprehensible] drums, huh, where it all started, another level
I asked my mother, "Why do you cry?"
 She said, "Your brother, he just died"
 Well, I told him not to go outside
 He said he had to fight for his country's right
But don't you know that mo-mother
 Don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
 Because the war is not over
 Until you can feel love, peace an' hear silence
But I smell gunpowder
My brother's been dead ever since
 I didn't believe it, but when I saw him I was convinced
 Two shots to the head, he was already dead, Lord
 I headed for revenge in the city of Port-au-Prince
Screamin', "Bro-brother"
 Don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
 Because the war is not over
 Until you can feel love, peace an' hear silence
But I smell gunpowder
 Zion's gunpowder, L.A.'s gunpowder
I wanna know why
 Christians pray for a new day
 We don't need no, we don't need no, we don't need noWyclef Jean - Gunpowder - http://motolyrics.com/wyclef-jean/gunpowder-lyrics.html
 But it's still the same way
I wanna know why
 Ghetto people pray for a new day
 Hey, hey, hey
 An' it's still the same way
But the preacher man told me
 "Good things come to those who wait"
 Do good things come to those who wait?
 I wanna know tell me
Good thing come to those who wait
 Do good things come to those who wait?
 We wanna know, we wanna know, we wanna know
Pe-people
 Don't you know that we can't stop the violence, no
 Because the war is not over
 Until you can feel love, peace, an' hear the silence
But I smell gunpowder
 Brooklyn's gunpowder, Shaolin's gunpowder
 Uptown's gunpowder, Jersey's gunpowder
Even in New Zealand's gunpowder
 Australia's gunpowder, Brixton's gunpowder
 Even in New Haven's gunpowder
The Carnival, anything can happen
 [Incomprehensible]
Rest in peace, rest in peace
