Refugees on your box
Or you tuning to rock
A smile from a fair, do you think you can tell
Or pumpin' the hip hip-hop
Whether you listenin' to rock
We gonna take over ya blocks
Refugees on your box
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail
Wish you were here
Refugees on your box
Did they get you to trade your heroes for goals
Let's go
Hot ashes for trees, hot air for a cool breeze
Or you tuning to rock
My dream was waking up in the projects a young teen
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain
Whether you pumpin' the hip hip-hop
A young refugee labeled, just come with a passport
Cold comfort for change, did you exchange
Kickin' in my mom's room, this song was just a thought
Put me up on pink Floyd and banned from the British blocks
Dad used to tell me about the American dream
We gonna take over the blocks
Runnin' over the same old ground
Listening to hip hop, my brother tune me into rock
We're just two lost souls swimming
How I wish, how I wish you were here
Whether you listenin' to hip hip-hop
But have we found the same old fears
So, so, you think you can tell
Critics don't mistake this for just any cover tune
I'ma take y'all to the dark side of the moon
In a fish bowl year after year
A walk on part in the war for a lead role in the game
