about

The pandemic allowed us a lot of time to reflect on ourselves and our music and also allowed us to explore and stretch out musically. We wanted to experiment with different sounds and production.

This song is a result of that tinkering period, rooted in the idea that we can all feel alone and sometimes hopeless with the weight of the world on our shoulders.

Sometimes it feels like things will never change. But our strength as a global community lies in our ability to work together, connect, and all do our part to win the day.

Sometimes just getting through the day can be a win. If we all do a little, a little goes a long way.

Flobots give you this piece in commemoration of the possibilities of what we can do. And what happens if we all decide to get together and pull our own weight. We're of the firm belief of that means that we'll win.

lyrics

INTRO

Pull my weight
can I pull my weight
make it through the day
each one feels the same
Never see myself in the frozen flame
Alone, I know I walk these roads

Add it up to I’m mad enough
to toss it in the griddle
abandonin’ the animus
and losing all momentum
it’s bad
but patterns keep my madness
in the middle
Its sad cause I’m so close to winnin

VERSE 1

the whole of emotions
are holding me back
open and lonely
and nobody asked
can’t cope with the slogans
and too many ads
accumulate bruising
a negative habits
perhaps as a rabbit
that raps
I’ll get enough cabbage
to get someone to carry these bags
but who is the master
who the bastard
who is the pastor always lying in church
to get us to pay down his taxes
going potassium bananas
I’m out looking for these answers
keep me black and strapped molasses
irons out to blast the shackles
i am tasked with reaching out
when my inner light is casting shadows

CHORUS

Pull my weight can I
pull my weight
I Do my part n’ if you do the same (then)
We win the day
We win the day

VERSE 2 - JONNY 5

Pull my weight all by myself
Feel so much agitation
Fever dreams haunt half the nation
Checkin on my health
I told you bout a million vaccinations
A stack of ancient papers made sacred talk to me
In prophecies
Not the blasphemous heresies that billionaires extract from the Pharisees
Cuz I’m talking about heaven on earth
Makin it happen right here while I’m steppin on dirt
In the concert
I scream out for paradise
For those scared to death
For those scared of life
For the unsure, unaware, unsung, impure , unknown and unappreciated
I’m waiting for a sign
Tell me when it’s time
To come home and be initiated
And I’m just one lone unsophisticated soul
One among billions
On the planet for a minute now
Moving in and out of my resilience
In a crowd
I’m floating in a cloud
The prize I wanted for is right here beneath
But when I’m isolated ‘s like it’s light years from me

CHORUS

Pull my weight (can I)
Pull my weight
I Do my part and you do the same (then)
We win the day
We win the day

BRIDGE

I do my small part and you do the same
You won’t let my monster stand in my way
I light your shadow then we break the chains
We Win The Day
We Win The Day

I can sing your song when you are afraid
You can sing my song when I’m in the grave
We know the words cuz they both are the same
We Win The Day
We Win The Day

Pull my weight (can I)
Pull my weight
I Do my part and you do the same (then)
We win the day
We win the day

Pull my weight
can I pull my weight
make it through the day
