Learn English With the Song “It’s Enough”

Lenny Kravitz is an eclectic artist who over the course of his career has been inspired by different artists including Miles Davis, the Beatles, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, and Prince, among many others. He is also a great musician that plays many instruments such as guitar, electric bass, drums, piano, harmonica, and sitar.

Music has been his great passion since secondary school when he worked in a fish market to be able to continue his studies. Born in New York in 1964 to a Jewish father of Ukrainian origin and a mother of Bahamian origin, he was raised in California. Since then, this American child has come a long way. In fact, since he recorded his debut album Let Love Rule in 1989, his career has been a series of successes and recognition.

On 11 May 2018, Kravitz announced the release of his eleventh album, Raise Vibration, scheduled for 7 September 2018. The same day, the new single from the album, “It’s Enough,“ was released followed by the second single “Low” on 25 May.

Lyrics

.45 calibre in the face
Shot him in the head because of his race
Now that he is dead, will we plead his case?
While the executioner‘s out on grace

[Pre-Chorus] I just thought somehow
That things would get better

[Chorus] It’s enough, it’s enough, it’s enough
In the system, you cannot trust
It’s enough, it’s enough
When the whole wide world is corrupt
It’s enough, it’s enough
And we all are just getting fucked
It’s enough, it’s enough

What’s that going down in the Middle East?
Do you really think it’s to keep the peace?
How we love to control a foreign land
Taking what we can is always the plan

[Pre-Chorus] And they know, they know
That Africa is the centre

[Chorus] It’s enough, it’s enough, it’s enough
In the system, you cannot trust
It’s enough, it’s enough
When the whole wide world is corrupt
It’s enough, it’s enough
And we all are just getting fucked
It’s enough, it’s enough

[Bridge] When will the desire for love
Outweigh the desire for power?
When will we face the truth
And allow our hearts to flower?

For the planet, for the people
For every living thing upon this world, yeah
For destruction and the hatred (oh, the hatred)
Is about to take us down for good

What’s in all those trails, up there, in the sky?
Why has all the food become modified?
Pushing all your drugs just to keep us high
While the media propagates the lie

[Pre-Chorus] And I know, oh yes, I know (I know)
The all-seeing eye is the devil

[Chorus] It’s enough, it’s enough, it’s enough
In the system, you cannot trust
It’s enough, it’s enough
When the whole wide world is corrupt
It’s enough, it’s enough
And we all are just getting fucked
It’s enough, it’s enough

It’s enough, it’s enough, it’s enough
In the system, you cannot trust
It’s enough, it’s enough
When the whole wide world is corrupt
It’s enough, it’s enough
And we all are just getting fucked
It’s enough, it’s enough

It’s enough, it’s enough, it’s enough
In the system, you cannot trust
It’s enough, it’s enough
When the whole wide world is corrupt
It’s enough, it’s enough
And we all are just getting fucked
It’s enough, it’s enough, hoo

We are living in these times
Where the evil one has come to rob us blind, oh yeah yeah yeah
Oh, people, we must understand
That it’s time to wake up and do what we can, oh yeah yeah yeah
Hoo
