Versuri 13. Johnny, Kick a Hole in the Sky

I saw a star spangled banner yet wave 
 
I, I, I cry, I cry 
I was born in a land, I don't think you understand 
God damn, what I am 
I'm a native of this place, please don't kick me in my face 
My race has been disgraced 
 
Won't somebody testify? Kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny 
 
I, I, I wonder why, why 
Put us in your pumpkin shell 
Where you keep us very well 
It's hell, where I dwell 
 
When history books are full of shit 
I become the anarchist, I'm pissed at this 
What this country claims to be 
It's a lie, no place for me, I bleed 
 
Won't somebody testify? Kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny 
 
I, I, I decide to defy 
Kill my trust if you must, but in my blood there is the lust 
For life, that's right 
Apache blood is in my heart, thrashing through me like a shark 
Crashing through the dark 
 
Won't somebody testify? Kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny 
 
I, I, I confide, confide 
What am I supposed to do, I feel like I'm cut in two 
Confused by rules 
Do these two cultures clash or am I living in the past? 
I ask, please, tell me fast 
 
Won't somebody testify? Kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Slap a liar in his eye, kick a hole right in the sky 
(Testify, testify, kick a hole right in the sky) 
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny 
 
I, I, I, that?s right 
To what do I belong and if I change will I be wrong 
Be wrong, that?s wrong 
I took my foot and kicked a hole in the sky 
I proceeded to plead, forefathers, help me decide 
 
A jagged flash of light struck me in the eye 
I turned around and found that I was still alive 
Snakes rise high from the purple black sky 
The red cloud rains and the black horse rides 
 
Then it dawned on me like the mornin' sun 
I'm a part of two worlds and the mornin' comes 
Glowing embers tend to remember when 
The power that is peace was treated as a friend 
I am a master of adaption and I've got to take action 
I'm a man, the animal man
