Oh yeah, oh yeahWell they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and when you die
They never seem to hear even your crySo as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and allWell the oppressors are trying to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
And they think that they have got the battle won
I say forgive them Lord
They know not what they've done'Cause as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and allOoh, yeah, oh yeah, woah yeah oohAnd I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slaveSo as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, one and allYeah, the harder they come
The harder they'll fall one and all
What I say now what I say now, ooh
What I say now what I say
One time, the harder they come
The harder they'll fall
Wanna know
Ooh the harder they come
The harder they'll fall, wanna knowmy small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0 -

I live in a diverse city in a diverse neighborhood where white kids are a minority in the college bound high school and where 99% of graduates go to college. Our local and state government is responsive to the minority communities needs. My city elected a gay mayor and Hispanic mayors. We have reasonable gun control laws and accountable law enforcement and criminal justice. Is it perfect? No but it’s a hell of a lot better than some of these other places in the US.
I wonder what the crime rate was in Seattle in the chop zone month to month year over year, comparatively?
