The Red Hot Chili Peppers Johnny, Kick a Hole in the Sky Lyrics

I(x10)

I cry, I cry
I was born in a land
I don't think you understand
God d___ what I am
I'm a native of this place
Please don't kick me in my face
My race has been disgraced

Won't somebody testify
Kick a hole right in the sky
Testify, testify kick a hole right in the sky
Slap a liar in his eye
Kick a hole right in the sky
Testify, testify kick a hole right in the sky
Johnny, Johnny, Johnny

I(x10)

I wonder why, why
Put us in a pumpkin shell
Where you keep us very well
It's hell, where I dwell
When history books are full of s___
I become the anarchist
I'm p___ed at this
What this country claims to be
It's a lie
No place for me
I bleed

I(x10)

I decide to defy
Kill my trust if you must
But in my blood there is the l___
For life that's right
Apache blood is in my heart
Thrashing though me like a shark
Crashing through the dark

I(x10)

I confide, confide
What am I supposed to do
I feel like I'm cut in two
Confused by rules
Do these two cultures clash
Or am I living in the past
I ask please tell me fast

I(x10)

I, that's right
To what do I belong
And if I change will I be wrong
Be wrong, that's wrong
I took my foot and kicked a hole in the sky
I proceeded to plead for Fathers help me decide
A jagged flash of light struck me in the eye
I turned around and found that I was still alive
Snakes rise high from the purple black sky
The red cloud rains and the black horse rides
Then it dawned on me like the mornin' sun
I'm a part of two worlds and the mornin' comes
Glowing embers tend to remember when
The power that is peace was treated as a friend
I am a master of adaption and I've got to take action
I'm a man, the animal man
