Native Tongue
How can they say that it's one way when it's the opposite?
And how can they know the end of the story before I tell it?
'Cause when I walk your feet, they fall to the same beat
Maybe we're from two different worlds, but we got our own language
We talk to people but they never understand
They think we're crazy 'cause it sounds like noise
When we're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We used to live like we were strangers, we didn’t know any better
We didn’t fit in with the out crowd so we gave in, and we shut our mouths
But oh I love your history and I can take it
And when you talk in code to me, I can translate it
We talk to people but they never understand
They think we're crazy 'cause it sounds like noise to them
Ain't it strange all the things you hear when you sit and listen?
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
And all this time I've been wasting my breath
Just wasting my words on everyone else
Now speaking in my native
Speaking in my native tongue
So come on, talk it out...
Your voice, it brought me back from the dead somehow
Speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
We're speaking in our native
Speaking in our native tongue
And all this time I've been wasting my breath
Just wasting my words on everyone else
Now speaking in my native
Speaking in my native tongue
