Song | Socialized Hate |
Artist | Atrophy |
Album | Socialized Hate |
作曲 : Atrophy, Lykins | |
Throughout our troubled history man's exploited fellow man. | |
Displaying xenophobic fear that's hard to understand | |
Centuries ago in | |
Europe things were different than today | |
Foreigners were treated with respect not disdain | |
But dreams of power soon crushed this fine ideal | |
They set across the ocean in search of land to steal | |
They subjugated natives and stripped them of their rights | |
Sold them into slavery to demonstrate their might. | |
Socialized hate | |
Formed by modern state [Chorus:] | |
Can't you see, it's a lie | |
Don't you know, that they've died | |
Trapped, by your hate | |
Stereotyped, convenient | |
Forced to be subservient | |
Taught by your state | |
All you pseudo-christians had yet to have your fun | |
You called them all subhuman justifying what you'd done | |
You sold them into slavery, every last one that you could | |
I guess that's only natural when you say its in their blood | |
Soon the racist theory spread to every colony | |
The crimes that you committed were for everyone to see | |
Depleted all their hunting grounds and chopped down hallowed woods | |
Set your plantations on the land where they once stood [Chorus:] | |
Socialized hate | |
Formed by modern state [Solo: Rick] | |
The hatred that you planted is still with us today | |
No longer simply slavery manifests in different ways | |
Keeps people in dead end jobs, reduces education | |
Maintain our racial sterotypes, encourages segregation | |
You propogate injustice saying they've done it to themselves | |
You lock them in your ghettos, | |
Deny them any wealth | |
The dogma you've created makes sure you never see | |
That underneath a different color they're just like you and me | |
