We Need To Go Back
Ain't nobody got nothing good to say
And if it ain't a dirty game nobody wants to play (nobody wants to play)
Shoot him up, bag him up, stick him up, get away
And I read in the newspaper, things are getting worse everyday
Oh-oh, we need to go back
(We need to go back)
Back to the songs we used to sing
We need to go back
(We need to go back)
When we would share a little bit (of everything) everything
And if that don't do it (pray)
Or pull us through it (pray)
And you don't know a better way (pray)
Maybe we need to (pray)
We need to pray (pray)
We need to pray, yeah
Everybody's got a surprise in store for you
You ask 'em where they're coming from
They tell ya where they're going to
Just trip the fool
Play it cool
Break the rules
You'll get by
And they swear
On the bible, it's the truth
When they know it's a lie
Oh-oh, we need to go back
(We need to go back)
Back to (the songs we used to sing) we used to sing
We need to go back
(We need to go back)
To when we shared a little bit of everything
And if that don't do it (pray)
Or pull us through it (pray)
And you don't know a better way (pray)
Maybe we need to (pray)
Pray (pray)
We need to, we need to pray (pray)
And if that don't do it (pray)
Or pull us through it (pray)
And you don't know a better way (pray)
Maybe we need to
Necesitamos Retroceder
Ain't nadie tiene nada bueno que decir
Y si no es un juego sucio, nadie quiere jugar (nadie quiere jugar)
Dispararle, embolsarlo, asaltarlo, escapar
Y leo en el periódico, las cosas empeoran cada día
Oh-oh, necesitamos retroceder
(Necesitamos retroceder)
A las canciones que solíamos cantar
Necesitamos retroceder
(Necesitamos retroceder)
Cuando compartíamos un poco (de todo) todo
Y si eso no funciona (rezar)
O nos saca adelante (rezar)
Y no sabes un mejor camino (rezar)
Quizás necesitamos (rezar)
Necesitamos rezar (rezar)
Necesitamos rezar, sí
Todos tienen una sorpresa guardada para ti
Les preguntas de dónde vienen
Te dicen a dónde van
Solo engaña al tonto
Actúa con calma
Rompe las reglas
Te las arreglarás
Y juran
En la biblia, es la verdad
Cuando saben que es mentira
Oh-oh, necesitamos retroceder
(Necesitamos retroceder)
A (las canciones que solíamos cantar) solíamos cantar
Necesitamos retroceder
(Necesitamos retroceder)
A cuando compartíamos un poco de todo
Y si eso no funciona (rezar)
O nos saca adelante (rezar)
Y no sabes un mejor camino (rezar)
Quizás necesitamos (rezar)
Rezar (rezar)
Necesitamos, necesitamos rezar (rezar)
Y si eso no funciona (rezar)
O nos saca adelante (rezar)
Y no sabes un mejor camino (rezar)
Quizás necesitamos
