How Did We Get Here Lyrics - Crimson Cord - Propaganda

Well I feel it 

It's the blood of my ancestors resting in my chest, bro 

I was so great 

Yeah, cause I remember karaoke mics pointed at the speaker 

Boom box play the tracks, CD skipped, bunch of raps 

Open mics, night side, drive by ghetto bird 

Hoping you can make it home 

Better get swift with your words 

Birthplace, earthquake 

Hometown; it goes down 

Learn to bust choppers before your ABC, tragedy 

Survivor rivals the odds of tryin' to fight gravity 

A compliment when MC say come battle me, stay cool 

Now a dad, college grad, quit my job, hit the road 

Tryin' to get my marriage happy 

Ask about me at the bottom of the 710, holding down the sea port 

Beach city, coast guard, Queen Mary, Snoop Lion 

Trust me, I'm a native, the Hollywood sign be lyin' beneath it 

Grave of a thousand young souls, take a stroll on a sure dream of Californication 

And I still can't explain how any of us made it 

It's grace

And I got a feeling I can't describe 

I see this place when I close my eyes 

Wake me up if we ever arrive 

And tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me 

Photos 

My hand prints left permanent stamps in 

The steering wheel with the pressure of anvils 

Fresh out the gate, the campus that gave us a canvas; blank 

Unemployment rates, we scrambling for pay 

Never stand still in a rat race 

Speeding out of LA, couldn't be late that day 

I'll be right back, I'm headed to Vegas cause Taylor got graduation, too 

That round trip switched quick to a one-way, I'm surprised it's you 

I hit the local circuit in churches scribblin' verses 

Rehearsing them with no music so earth in due time can use them 

For spoken word or whatever service 

A movement; the music in Egypt was persecuted 

Long go, faith is bullet proof 

When you look around and pray that they won't shoot you to prove it 

How did we get here, in a dream school? 

Now when I swim here God planned it, I'm one of the fish here like Boom 

And I got a feeling I can't describe 

I see this place when I close my eyes 

Wake me up if we ever arrive 

And tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me how did we 

How did we get here? 

Tell me 

How, how, how, how 

How, how, how, how 

How, how, how, how 

How, how, how, how 

And I learned you ain't in love with this 

Time to fire your publicist, I inspire above the mess 

Your desire requires this lost angels city, don't pity us, fully aware 

That's why I don't flinch at a bully scare
