Letter to Lady J [Live] Dispatch (Ft. G. Love & Special Sauce & O.A.R)

[Verse 1]
My dear old friend, it's you we need
There's blood in the gutters and fear in the street
How long we're to fight for a change that never comes?

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, in some ways, it's the same
But tonight, the crowd, they came
Fists in the air, candles and vigils
Cracked dreams held together with curses and wishes

[Chorus]
But how long's it been since you've been outside?
How long's it been since you opened your eyes?
'Cause I've been to the line and it's all right there
And I cannot wait to get on from—

[Verse 2]
Arms bent back and blackjack welt
Involuntary tears and the tears we felt
Does it always have to get worse before it gets better?

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, in some ways, it's the same
But tonight, the crowd, they came
Fists in the air, candles and vigils
Cracked dreams held together with curses and wishes
