Bliss n Eso - Bullet And A Target (Acoustic Version) Lyrics






[Intro by Vusi:]
I believe that together we can really make a difference.
One man cannot make a difference, but if we can partner, if we can have a collective will,
and a willingness to make a difference in our nation, we can really do make a difference.

[Muzi (Connections Zulu Choir Soloist):]
What you have done, is put yourself between a bullet and a target
Won't be long, won't be long...

[Bliss:]
All it took was one in a trillion
In a world where there gunning civilians
Where conspiracies just drop on us
Like plummeting buildings
Government villains
At night, we are renegades who fight
Under a pilgrims plight
For a better way of life
See we sail the seas with a sun stained atlas
To escape the day to day mental mundane madness
That consumes us, its true, though my real Answer Lays
Is stepping back to view life's real grand Monet
But crucial issues are lost in this crazy world's wealth
How can lust for bucks outweigh one baby girl's health?
Through the cyclone we hit the Third World and found heroes
With nothing but still everything, smiling at ground zero

[Connections Zulu Choir:]
What you've done here, is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before you're pulling yourself away [x2]

[Eso:]
So let the bullets in the air turn to raining rose petals
That covers the Earth's surface while the children throw pebbles
From dreams to themes, to a crack in the concrete
From a seed to a tree, I make it happen at God speed
Whatever happened to increase the Peace
Fight the power for people to defeat the beast
Well its right here, it's right now
It's anything I plan
It's a poem that proves a point
It's everything I am
So on a rainy day
I made my way
To the Promised Land and back
And now it's safe to say in a crazy way
This song is where it's at
Its equal verse what wasn't given
Teachers verse the problem children
Evil verse the honest living
People verse the politicians

[Connections Zulu Choir:]
What you've done here, is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before you're pulling yourself away [x2]

[Eso:]
This is definite
Like the sun will rise
Pure like the thought
If I jump ill fly
I am revolution,
My path is belief
So how can they possible stop
What they can't even see

[Bliss:]
See they tax the poor,
Their evil got em' coughing up
There's no real freedom
Under a legal modern mafia
Set the goal and unite,
Get cocked and take aim
The people are the power to make change
So make way

[Connections Zulu Choir:]
What you've done here, is put yourself between a bullet and a target
And it won't be long before you're pulling yourself away [x3]

    Songs like this keep me wanting to keep fighting for life. When every thing else says stop you aren’t meant to be alive. You can stop fighting and just let death take you now. You deserve the peace it brings

  4. 1.... ....

  11. T.... ....

    Remember buying this Album on a road trip too Queensland, just after the Floods had hit pretty bad for the second time.
    Driving through Toowomba, Smoking joints, with this cranking.

    Was somewhat devastating to see, but it's the same ideology that BnE have that kept the spirits high in the people.

    When there's a will, there's a way.

    Love your work, best album in my opinion.

  12. T.... ....

    a gem which the world should hear

  28. R.... 9....

    because music like this where ppl rap about real stuff and human problems gets no interresst by the media and shit , so its hidden talent that not much ppl listen too but wen they rap about girls and drugs and killing its automatically promoted by the media and those songs go viral with millions of views ......... ppl need 2 wake up !

    R.... 9....

    R_M_O_A 98 very real orange peel

  29. N.... ....

  36. E.... ....

  37. 1.... ....

    real hip hop isn't determined by the use of the word nigga.

    1.... ....

    Exactly, white guys rap too and some of them are real. I actually hate overuse of the word nigga.

  38. M.... ....

    SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC!

  40. H.... O....

    I love how Bliss n Eso rap about world issues or just having fun this is real hip hop. Not people saying nigga in every sentence!!!

    H.... O....

    <3 #realhiphop I've found someone who I have mutual thoughts with.

  41. m.... c....

    1 in a trillion mate

  42. s.... m....

    Keep looking brother, There is always an artist out there that is willing to ink these great words. I am also sorry for your loss R.I.P to your mate

  43. s.... m....

    Regardless we still get the joy of listening to some of the most raw and true rap and hip hop being produced now days. Don't get me wrong there is still plenty of other great MC's and Bands around the world but its hard to find them unless you know where to look.

  44. g.... ....

  45. M.... k....

  52. J.... W....

  54. s.... g....

    “Society has good reason to fear the Radical. Every shaking advance of mankind toward equality and justice has come from the Radical. He hits, he hurts, he is dangerous. Conservative interests know that while Liberals are most adept at breaking their own necks with their tongues, Radicals are most adept at breaking the necks of Conservatives.”
    ― Saul D. Alinsky

  55. d.... b....

    all it took was one in a trillion, sir.

    Best lyrics bliss<3

  63. L.... G....

    This song is immortally on my iPod for eternity. <3

  64. T.... K....

    If you guys like them check out Cro. Hes german but he has a sick flow

  65. T.... ....

    I heard they were taught by a hypnotist

  66. C.... T....

    Their flow is divine.

  67. C.... T....

    I felt the same way when I heard them for the first time.

  68. C.... T....

    Must be true love!

  69. i.... d....

    HOW THE FUCK HAVE I ONLY JUST DISCOVERED THIS?!

  70. n.... ....

    Ocelote motha fkas

  71. B.... T....

    Easily. People who have listened to the original version of the song, Know and have felt the real impact behind it. This 'version' is just short of blasphemy. It's disgraceful.

  72. B.... T....

    as much as I enjoy listening to aussie hip-hop, I'm sorry, But this is absolutely disgraceful. In fact, It is much a bastardisation as the version Clarence Greenwood A.K.A. Citizen Cope, did with the rapper known as Rhymefest. The original version on the Clarence Greenwood Recordings is THE ONLY TRUE version, And will always be. End of discussion.

  73. b.... ....

    already have it........... you still don't see my point. I shouldn't need ad block to simply watch a video. The video itself would not play because the ad before it would not play.

  74. o.... ....

    How can someone dislike this video? t-_-

  75. j.... ....

    stupid leftist propaganda, but so catchy

  76. M.... ....

    If you use ad-blocker with chrome you wont get any advertisement bro. Just a tip =)

  77. H.... ....

    Why are all Bliss N Eso videos them walking toward the camera?

  78. F.... ....

    I just realized the Zulu guy in the chorus is speaking english.

  79. j.... h....

    festival hall 2011 there about to start this song there was shivers down my spine they bring out the bloke from the choir at the start he dose his speech pretty much one of the most amazing things iv witnessed!

  80. N.... S....

    fgftgftggtfgfgfg

  81. C.... V....

    get adblock if you use chrome, if you dont gtfo

  82. A.... ....

    OCE-ARMY <3

  83. b.... ....

    When someone doesn't understand a simple observation and I have to explain it in detail, i may sound like i'm complaining.

  84. w.... p....

    YEEESSSSSSS

  85. w.... p....

    So are they ever going to make another album? Didn't they make Running on Air like 2 years ago? C'mon I want some more B&E!!!!

  86. g.... y....

    i love this song

  87. b.... ....

    Did you even fully read my comment? You're right, it's not a big deal. Except when the ad has an error and doesn't play, which results in the video i'm actually here to watch not working as well. When the ads make it so i literally can't watch the video, that's when it becomes "a big deal".

  88. B.... K....

    The collective will is growing!

  89. r.... ....

    this band owes me some serious fucking bandwidth

  90. M.... ....

    Would you rather pay for YouTube and have no ads? You can skip most of them after 3 seconds anyways... Lol not a big deal.

  91. D.... ....

    step 1: get google chrome
    step 2: download ad blocker
    step 3: profit?

  92. S.... D....

    adblock my friend! :)

  93. r.... ....

    hey, use add blocker with Google chrome. it is really good!

  94. T.... ....

    I've never even heard of these guys until like 30 seconds ago, ironically enough off a Citizen Cope video with this same song.

    Overall? Not bad. Not bad at all.

  95. b.... ....

    Yeah I've got onw now (didn't at the time) and sometimes i still get ads.

  96. T.... ....

    while that's great for you the channel doesn't receive any money from your view. i would rather watch a fifteen second advertisement just so that they can receive some money.
