words and music by Brandon Earl Bristow
there's a crack in the sidewalk
and I'm taking it up as a good sign
roots in the water
it's about time
take up your pickax
I'll take up mine
bring down the walls and let the water down river
maybe the world will forgive us in time
hey lonely mamma, well tell me do you feel it?
they take when you give em'
so don't you let them steal you away
see all your children, playing in the street
you'll tell them your story when you're oh so old
see the tears roll down their cheeks
their crying freedom, so called freedom
you're all american in back of a gun
with you're reason, so called reason
look into your heart and pick yourself a one love
there's a crack in the sidewalk
and I'm taking it up as a good sign
roots in the water
it's about time
