Iconoclast

[Chorus]

Sun comes out but you will not feel it

Sirens sound but you will not hear it

Roots take hold and break the foundation

Shoots grow in the cracks of a nation

Sun comes out but you will not feel it

Sirens sound but you will not hear it

Roots take hold and break the foundation

Shoots grow in the cracks of a nation

Sun comes out but you will not feel it

Sirens sound but you will not hear it

Roots take hold and break the foundation

Shoots grow in the cracks of a nation

[Verse 1]

I've been moving to a different beat but

Now I'm feeling like I'm trapped again

I've been trying to keep a different time and

Now I'm wondering how it's gonna end

[Refrain]

Because the dams won't hold the flow of the water

Cops won't stop our tears or our laughter

Truncheons won't stop people from healing

Boots can't stamp out what we're all feeling

[Verse 2]

I've been speaking in a different language

Trying to think beyond the current state

Doing things that I can't describe 'cause

Words alone can't accommodate

[Refrain]

Because the dams won't hold the flow of the water

Cops won't stop our tears or our laughter

Truncheons won't stop people from healing

Boots can't stamp out what we're all feeling

[Chorus]

Sun comes out but you will not feel it

Sirens sound but you will not hear it

Roots take hold and break the foundation

Shoots grow in the cracks of a nation

Sun comes out but you will not feel it

Sirens sound but you will not hear it

Roots take hold and break the foundation

Shoots grow in the cracks of a nation
