MOVING BACKWARDS from FALL EP by ROUGH FRANCIS (OFFICIAL)

YOU AND ME
WE’RE LIVING IN A DREAM
IT’S A NIGHTMARE
YOU KNOW WE CAN’T GET OUT
WE COULDN’T WORK IT OUT
IT’S NOT FAIR
I REFRESH MY FEED
IT’S 1953
NO PROGRESS
THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT IS
THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT IS

WE’RE ALL STUCK IN THIS GELATIN
WE WILL TURN TO SKELETONS
WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS
IDENTITIES ALWAYS SCRUTINIZED
BY TRANS PHOBIC MINDS
WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS

YOU AND ME
WE’RE LIVING IN A DREAM
IT’S A NIGHTMARE
YOU KNOW WE CAN’T GET OUT
WE COULDN’T WORK IT OUT
IT’S NOT FAIR
THE GOOD OLD BOYS
IN THEIR PICKUP TRUCKS
THEY DON’T CARE
THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT IS
THAT’S JUST THE WAY IT IS

WE’RE ALL STUCK IN THIS GELATIN
WE WILL TURN TO SKELETONS
WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS
IDENTITIES ALWAYS SCRUTINIZED
BY TRANS PHOBIC MINDS
WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS
NOW THE UTERUS IS PUBLIC PROPERTY
AND MEN HOLD THE KEY
WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS
TOO MANY BLACK KIDS GETTING SHOT
BY FILTHY COPS
WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS

YOU AND ME
WE’RE LIVING IN A DREAM
THIS NIGHTMARE IS REAL
ALL I SEE
IS BLIND COMPLACENCY
THE IGNORANCE IS REAL
I WANT TO BE
A SIMPLE HUMAN BEING
THE OPPRESSION IS REAL
MY REALITY
WASN’T SEEN ON DONNA REED
THEIR PRIVILEGE IS REAL

WE KEEP MOVING
WE KEEP MOVING BACK
TO THE SO CALLED GOOD OLD DAYS
I’M NOT SURPRISED
THEY BELIEVE THE LIES
THAT HURT THE MARGINALIZED
WHO IS IT GOOD FOR
WHO IS IT GOOD FOR
IT’S NOT GOOD FOR ME
IT’S NOT GOOD FOR ME
IT’S NOT GOOD FOR ME
IT’S NOT GOOD FOR YOU

WE’RE ALL MOVING BACKWARDS
