We Got Enough
Rising from Rags: Embracing Unity in Body Language's 'We Got Enough'
Lyrics
If you got a dollar to spare you should for the common good
If you have a dollar to spare, contribute for the common good.
I hear that change a-jangling jangling in the name of star spangling
Change is being made in the name of patriotism, but there's a critique implied with "jangling."
We got broods to raise and these days we set it all ablaze
We have families to raise, and in the current times, we are disrupting the norm.
'Cause we rags to riches we vicious and we coming after you
Coming from humble beginnings, we are fierce, and we are coming after those in power.
We got enough to go around
We have sufficient resources for everyone.
When we get up we throw down
When we rise, we celebrate and share what we have.
We got enough to go around
Reiterating the abundance and willingness to share.
When we get up we throw down
Emphasizing the communal aspect when we rise and celebrate.
We lost control and you know we gonna crash the boat
We've lost control, and consequences are imminent, possibly referring to societal issues.
We done and drove it into a foggy cove of lost hope
We've navigated into a situation of despair and lost hope.
We are an imposing demanding pan handling sort of practical joke
The group is portrayed as imposing, demanding, and possibly as a satirical practical joke.
But we got enough bombs to make you sweat until your broke
Despite our unconventional nature, we possess enough power (bombs) to intimidate.
'Cause we borrow and borrow and borrow and never return
A criticism of continuous borrowing without repayment.
And we burning and burning and burning and burn and never learn
Highlighting a destructive pattern of burning through resources without learning.
Yeah we borrow and borrow and borrow and never return
Repetition of the theme of borrowing without returning, suggesting irresponsibility.
And we burning and burning and burning and burn and never learn
Reiteration of the destructive pattern of burning through resources without learning.
We got enough to go around
Despite issues, there's still an abundance to share.
When we get up we throw down
Positive reinforcement of sharing when rising and celebrating.
We got enough to go around
Reiterating the abundance and willingness to share.
When we get up we throw down
Emphasizing the communal aspect when rising and celebrating.
(come on, come on)
Encouraging participation or action.
(come on, come on)
Encouraging participation or action (repeated).
