Let Me Out
ANTHONY KHAN, DAMON ALBARN, MAVIS STAPLES, TERRENCE THORNTON
Mama Mavis, oh
Mama, they tried my patience
Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
So together we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors
You say I'm dangerous, I speak for the nameless
I fly with the vultures, I be with them bangers
If change don't come, then the change won't come
If the bands make 'em dance, then the rain gon' come
(Woo!)
Am I passin' into the light?
(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?) Look into your eyes
All the world is out of your hands
(Then ascending into the dark, let me out)
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Change come to pass
You'd best be ready for it
Something I've begun to fear is about to change its form
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in time
But I won't get tired at all
Let me out, let me out
Let me out, let me out
Look into my eyes, mama, tell me what you see
Tell me there's a chance for me to make it off the streets
Tell me that I won't die at the hands of the police
Promise me I won't outlive my nephew and my niece
Promise me my pastor isn't lyin' as he preach
Tell me that they'll listen if it's lessons that I teach
Tell me there's a heaven in the sky where there is peace
But until then, I keep my piece in arm's reach
Am I passin' into the light?
(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?)
All the world is out of your hands
(Then ascending into the dark) Another night
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Change coming
You'd best be ready for it
Something I've begun to fear is about to change its form
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in times
But I won't get tired at all

(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?)
All the world is out of your hands
(Then ascending into the dark) Another night
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Change is coming
You'd best be ready
Be ready, ready for it
Be ready, be ready
Ooh, ooh ooh

Mama Mavis, oh
Mama Mavis, oh
Mama, they tried my patience
Mamá, pusieron a prueba mi paciencia
Obama is gone, who is left to save us?
Obama se ha ido, ¿quién queda para salvarnos?
So together we mourn, I'm praying for my neighbors
Así que juntos lloramos, estoy rezando por mis vecinos
They say the devil's at work and Trump is calling favors
Dicen que el diablo está trabajando y Trump está pidiendo favores
You say I'm dangerous, I speak for the nameless
Dices que soy peligroso, hablo por los sin nombre
I fly with the vultures, I be with them bangers
Vuelo con los buitres, estoy con los pandilleros
If change don't come, then the change won't come
Si el cambio no llega, entonces el cambio no vendrá
If the bands make 'em dance, then the rain gon' come
Si las bandas los hacen bailar, entonces vendrá la lluvia
(Woo!)
(¡Woo!)
Am I passin' into the light?
¿Estoy pasando a la luz?
(Am I looking into mercy's eyes?) Look into your eyes
(¿Estoy mirando a los ojos de la misericordia?) Mira a tus ojos
All the world is out of your hands
Todo el mundo está fuera de tus manos
(Then ascending into the dark, let me out)
(Entonces ascendiendo a la oscuridad, déjame salir)
You got to die a little if you wanna live
Tienes que morir un poco si quieres vivir
Change come to pass
El cambio está por venir
You'd best be ready for it
Será mejor que estés preparado para ello
Something I've begun to fear is about to change its form
Algo que he comenzado a temer está a punto de cambiar de forma
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's a shift in time
Sí, sí, sí, es un cambio de tiempo
But I won't get tired at all
Pero no me cansaré en absoluto
Let me out, let me out
Déjame salir, déjame salir
Let me out, let me out
Déjame salir, déjame salir
Look into my eyes, mama, tell me what you see
Mira a mis ojos, mamá, dime lo que ves
Tell me there's a chance for me to make it off the streets
Dime que hay una oportunidad para que salga de las calles
Tell me that I won't die at the hands of the police
Dime que no moriré a manos de la policía
Promise me I won't outlive my nephew and my niece
Prométeme que no sobreviviré a mi sobrino y a mi sobrina
Promise me my pastor isn't lyin' as he preach
Prométeme que mi pastor no está mintiendo mientras predica
Tell me that they'll listen if it's lessons that I teach
Dime que escucharán si son lecciones las que enseño
Tell me there's a heaven in the sky where there is peace
Dime que hay un cielo en el cielo donde hay paz
But until then, I keep my piece in arm's reach
Pero hasta entonces, mantengo mi pieza al alcance del brazo
Am I passin' into the light?
¿Estoy pasando a la luz?
