|
What do we really need |
|
In this life |
|
I look at myself sometimes |
|
And it's not right |
|
People out there with no |
|
Food at night |
|
And we say we care, but we don't |
|
So we all lie |
|
What if there's something |
|
That you'll be paying |
|
At the end of the life |
|
Not the end of the day |
|
And we end up in |
|
All the shit that they're in |
|
And roles are reversed |
|
And it were different |
|
And we were the ones |
|
With nothing to eat |
|
And we were the ones |
|
With blood in our streets |
|
We were the ones |
|
With all the offspring |
|
And they were the ones |
|
Just watching on TV |
|
We were the ones |
|
Broke down and torn |
|
With our life on our back |
|
And our wife in our arms |
|
And they were the ones |
|
Like oh that's so sad |
|
We were the ones |
|
Like OH... |
|
Nothing ever changes |
|
The only thing I know |
|
Nothing ever changes |
|
Looking down this road |
|
Nothing ever changes |
|
Nothing ever changes |
|
Look at your dreams |
|
And your aspirations |
|
How selfish it is |
|
To need to mention |
|
Turning a thousand zin |
|
To millions |
|
Marry a model |
|
Have some children |
|
Well they've got dreams too |
|
I can imagine |
|
What if it all comes back |
|
To kill them |
|
Sleeping at night |
|
Without a murder |
|
And somebody tells you |
|
That's something they've never heard of |
|
Now look at your nightmare |
|
All of your worst fears |
|
You're calling your house |
|
And girl it stops there |
|
All these things |
|
We can't imagine loosing |
|
Like oh no |
|
What if it happens to me |
|
Well what you've got |
|
They've never had |
|
To be like you |
|
To have your chance |
|
To be like you |
|
Before they're gone |
|
Nothing ever changes |
|
At least that's how we act |
|
Like nothing ever changes |
|
Like god has got our backs |
|
And nothing ever changes |
|
I'm looking down this road |
|
And all I see is pain, yes |
|
Maybe we need more |
|
Shoes on our feet |
|
Maybe we need more |
|
Cash and jewelry |
|
Maybe we need more |
|
Cars and TV's |
|
Maybe we don't know |
|
What we need |
|
Maybe we need |
|
To want to fix this |
|
Maybe stop talking |
|
Maybe start listening |
|
Maybe we need |
|
To look at this world |
|
Less like a square |
|
And more like a circle |
|
Maybe just maybe |
|
God's not unfair |
|
Maybe were all his kids |
|
And he's up there |
|
Maybe he loves us |
|
For all our races |
|
Maybe he hates us |
|
When were all so racist |
|
Maybe he sees us |
|
Down here so selfish |
|
Takes this whole planet |
|
And just tries to melt it |
|
Maybe the meat |
|
Will inherit the earth |
|
'Cause it was written before |
|
So everything changes |
|
Nothing stays the same |
|
And everything changes |
|
And if you feel ashamed |
|
Maybe you should change this |
|
Before it gets too late |
|
Maybe you should change this |
|
We're standing at the gate |
|
Maybe you should change this |
|
Because everything changes |
|
You should change this |
|
Because everything changes |
|
Everything changes |
|
Everything changes |
