Story to Be Told Lyrics

I licked envelopes
Wrote a letter to the pope
He never gave me Rope
In the times I couldn't cope
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 soMin in my CORE
I never took back that joint I rolled
What happens now to 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.

Cover art for Story to Be Told lyrics by M.I.A.

I like this song. and btw do you know a song with lyric like "i really love alloh, i really love alloh"?, what's the title? it seems the same artist who sing this song.

it's M.I.A. and the song you're looking for is called "lovealot"

thanks, I found it! such a funny song. lakalakalaaa lakakalakalee :D interesting lyrics too.. I thought she said "I really love alloh" lol. Do you know her other songs that not really into hip hop, but more alternative electronic like this one? or like "paper plane" (her most famous song right?) simple rap, but more musical (at least have chords and melody), doesn't matter if it sampling from other song. And btw, she's new for me, I knew this song accidentaly by pick some random music video on youtube, and I heard that "lovealot" song while in the street :D...
