Story to be Told

M.I.A.

I licked envelopes
Wrote a letter to the pope

He never gave me rope
In the times I couldn't cope

They cleaned up the dope
And censored my scope

The writing on the walls
Been beaten to a pulp

All I ever wanted was my story to be told

I never got struck by something in my core
I never took back that joint I rolled
What happens now the truth I told
Do they all roll over and die in the cold

All I ever wanted was my story to be told

A skate board rolled, a lightning bolt

Droppin' on 'em
But it ain't their fault

Maybe I am floored
But it needs to be told

All I ever wanted was my story to be told
