Mary (玛丽) - Soulive

Up above my head

I hear the wind whippin'

Here come them ghetto birds again

On every street lamp

Cameras see you from a distance

So the light hit the note to live

And now we survive

But it's still nickle-and-dime

Quite underneath those lights

Tight-rope walking their life

You see the cameras don't work

When we in danger and hurt

Not a siren can be heard

Look for dead in the dirt

Mary don't you be ashamed to cry

Everywhere you looking

Another soul misguided

Thinking his pistol make him a man

Minimum wage ain't workin'

He want that fast money

Spend it as soon as it touch his hand

Why can't he see

You don't gotta try to be

Pushin' the LCD

Mother rear-viewin' me

And I'll tell you what's worse

Why are there so many of us

Ghetto-livin' like a curse

Can't even find truth in the church

Mary don't you be ashamed to cry

Mary don't you be ashamed to cry

And now we survive

But it's still nickle-and-dime

Quite underneath those lights

Tight-rope walking their life

You see the cameras don't work

When we in danger and hurt

Not a siren can be heard

Look for dead in the dirt

Mary don't you be ashamed to cry

Mary don't you be ashamed to cry

Oh mother Mary don't you be ashamed to cry

Don't you be ashamed to cry

Mary don't you be ashamed to cry
