Lyrics by: Mia, Anna, Ben, and Matt
[Chorus]
Oh written in the stars
Find freedom in the North
Follow the drinking gourd
Oh
Seasons come and go
But laws will never change
So I'll run away
[Verse 1]
Lets go...
Yeah
You're listening now
They say that when they were slaves they were treated bad (ly)
As abolitionists, this makes us really mad
But when we set them free everybody's glad
We believe that all men are equal, equal
Yeah this is America, respect the eagle, eagle
We help the slaves on the underground railroad
And lead them in the night to our secret abode
Forget those darn slave codes
So darn unfair
But do we dare?
Yes cause ... beastmode
Shunned by society, feeling like we might explode
The slaves work hard but don't get paid what they're owed (Yo)
I'm just another abolitionist like Harriet Tubman
Where the heck's all the sanity at, darn
They're still the people that no one cares about
That's why we have to keep you hidden til we get you out
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Yeah, we needed a change
When we tried to free the slaves people thought we were strange
I needed a break
For a sec I even gave up believing and praying
I even done illegal stuff and led them away
They say slavery's the root of the evilest ways
But have you ever been so hungry it keeps you awake
Now my freedom would leave them amazed
Hey, it feels like a long time coming, man
Since the day I thought of that cunning plan
One day I had a dream I tried to chase it
But I wasn't going nowhere, running man!
I knew that maybe someday I would understand
With Moses I would lead them to the promised land
They're still the people that no-one cares about
That's why we have to keep you hidden till we get you out
[Chorus 2x]
wat teh fuck!!
