|
In the states |
|
There's a problem with race |
|
Because of ignorant past burned fires]from evolution |
|
We've been killing each other |
|
I figure man should have it down to a science |
|
No chanceNot for a minute |
|
Not for a second |
|
I won't be defensive |
|
I'm straight out in my opinion |
|
You'ld better listen to a man who knows what he is saying |
|
I've seen your side |
|
You run and hide for the mere fact that you feel inferior |
|
Be superior |
|
And know your interior(pre) race, pride, prejudiceblack man, white manno standlive in the pastwe make it lasta hated massno solutionmind pollutionfor revolution(chorus) so low behold my eyesthis land of fools will riseno goodfor no one |
|
You blame oppression and play the role of criminals |
|
To rape and burn show progress is minimal |
|
White hoods and militants you know it's such a pity |
|
Living, breathing |
|
Violence in your city |
|
If one man |
|
Had one home |
|
In one world |
|
Held live alone without variety |
|
Full of anxiety |
|
No one to point at, question |
|
Or even talk to -- in his private grave |
|
No matter what color |
|
He wouldn't be saved from hell |
|
He dwellsA closed mind playing the part of prison cells(pre)(chorus) |
