When are we gonna grow up and accept responsibility |
|
When are we gonna change up and respect the probability |
|
Our culture has been bled and poetry is dead |
|
Police beat it to the ground and then they shot it in the head |
|
When are we gonna grow up and accept responsibility |
|
When are we gonna change up and respect the probability |
|
When are we gonna grow up a and accept responsibility |
|
With human intervention 10,000 years ago |
|
Torn apart by irrigation the civilization show |
|
Brought to you by bad intentions and human lust for greed |
|
Dictate our daily actions and sponsor slavery |
|
When are we gonna make-up and unite our possibilities |
|
Change our selfish ways and share our great abilities |
|
Our causes must be just our unities a must |
|
Ignore our petty differences and wipe away the dust |
|
Our varieties of ignorance gotta share a deeper grave |
|
Gotta reverse civilization while there's still something to save |
|
Ya can pray all that you want but then there's really something more |
|
But we gotta tear down their walls instead of knocking at their doors |
|
When are we gonna wake-up and demand our civil liberties |
|
Escape our mental cages and view our lives with clarity |
|
When are gonna stand up and expect some kind of dignity |
|
When are we gonna get up and accept the harsh reality |
|
We'll have roles to play we fake 'em every day |
|
And once again "don't you know there's gotta be a better way!" |
|
Though written in my youth that lyric still has truth |
|
And I read this in a comic book "ideas are bullet proof!" |
|
With human intervention 10,000 years ago |
|
Torn apart by irrigation the civilization show |
|
Brought to you by bad intentions and human lust for greed |
|
Dictate our daily actions and sponsor slavery |
|
When are we gonna grow up and accept responsibility |
|
When are we gonna stand up for our freedom and equality |
|
The truth is crystal clear but it's been harvested by fear |
|
And this simple crime occurs on every day of every year |
|
But when the lies are dead and we see just how misled |
|
We'll take all of the wicked ones and brick 'em in the head |
|
Our aim will never miss oh what a joyful bliss |
|
But until that fateful day we'll have to ask this |
|
When are we gonna grow up and accept responsibility [x4] |
|
When are we gonna make-up and unite our possibilities |
|
Change our selfish ways and share our great abilities |
|
When are we gonna grow up and accept responsibility |
