It Won't Go Away" — Crosby Stills Nash: текст песни

(Stephen Stills)

Intro. (Electric Guitar)

Don't you get tired Of listening to the cover up Sounds like a broken old record When the needle gets stuck

You got your media honeys Using their TV voice Tellin' you what you done decided As if you had any choice

And didn't they cry And worry 'bout people of color And didn't they mostly turn away Keep us afraid of each other

And you know it's a lie It ain't about people of color The American Dream betrayed And all of us feel the same rage

And it won't go away

Isn't it strange Ain't it a mystery How did he get it in his head Somehow he could speak for me

Hey, if what he's been a' saying Is actually what he believes Then one of us surely is a fool And you know that he thinks that it's me

And didn't they cry And worry 'bout people of color And didn't they mostly turn away Keep us afraid of each other

And you know it's a lie It ain't about people of color The American Dream betrayed And all of us feel the same rage

And it won't go away

Somebody wants us divided Someone of evil intent Trying to confuse and control The minds of the innocent

And isn't it time Good people have got to speak up And you'll know exactly what to say When you've finally had enough

Don't you go try And blame it on people of color And don't you dare turn away Keep us afraid of each other

Cause you know it's a lie It ain't about people of color The American Dream betrayed And all of us feel the same rage

And it won't go away Won't go away Won't go away Won't go away
