Hose Down - The Perceptionists, Syne

Hose Down

Hose Down

It be getting too hot

Too loud

Calling all my woes out

They all down

If it’s getting too hot

It goes down

Oh, you gotta

Hose Down

Hose Down

It be getting too hot

Too loud

Throw it down now…

You don’t wanna miss a good thing

You don’t wanna miss a good thing

Pushing for the good things

For the queens & the hood kings

This is more like an uprise

Duck down for the surprise

Looking just like an uprise

It’s a muthafuckin' uprise

In these troubled times

Trouble I’m seeing

Treason

Breaching every region

Easing

Right into your crib in the evening

Reaching

Every little breath of any air we’re breathing

Inhale

Exhale

Death nail

Ahh Boy, shit about to get real

Ahh Man, it’s really bout to get real

Ahh, yeah it’s really gonna get ill

Wether White, Black, Asian

We’re all caged in

Runaway the system raging

With all the funds they’re raising

Making this mainframe

Better duck down

They’re aiming

Hands up

But the cops shoot us now

They brutal now

It ain’t coolin' down

That greed of the 1% grueling now

It ain’t slowing down

Got me thinking

Was it better when they…

You don’t want to miss a good thing

You don’t want to miss a good thing

Pushing for the good things

For the queens and the hood kings

This is more like an uprise

Duck down for the surprise

Looking just like an uprise

It’s a motherfuckin' uprise (Come on!)

Back in the day, before the A-K

They let the hose spray to sweep bros away

But they kept coming back harder

Stronger, faster, smarter — and many became martyrs

They just wanted to be part of something

And not feel like they fought so hard for nothing

But they just got put in their place

And ended up with a foot in their face

No hood, no book, no religion or race could ever save ya

Big time bread is the only savior

Otherwise — you’re just one of those other guys

If you don’t believe it, see the hands of a brother rise

Up but the cops still shoot him down

They brutal now — they don’t fool around

Traffic stop could lead to a funeral now

It’s unsuitable how it’s worse now than it was when they…
