[00:02.62] From generation to generation it continues.
[00:07.00] Passing on the fear and the guilt.
[00:10.91] Handing down
[00:12.76] the lust for power
[00:14.66] and the lack of vision that results.
[00:18.58] From father to son,
[00:26.91] the prejudice lives on.
[00:28.89] Teaching the good old way.
[00:31.78] How to exploit, to profit, to gain.
[00:35.75] Let no one else have their say.
[00:39.57] And some rebel,
[00:47.85] but most agree.
[00:49.74] As father would say:
[00:51.64] "What's in it for me?"
[00:53.03] So the boy takes the gun,
[01:01.92] like a dutiful son.
[01:03.82] The world's not yet destroyed.
[01:06.65] Can he get the job done?
[01:09.60] Can he get the job...
[01:12.59] Can he get the job
[01:16.23] DONE?!
[01:30.87] ''Concrete''
[02:06.51] Concrete walls are spreading.
[02:08.71] You see them more and more.
[02:12.38] Soon we will be so cut off,
[02:16.94] we won't know what life is for.
[02:23.83] Some are shocked in mental homes,
[02:30.53] or locked behind prison walls.
[02:34.05] The rest of us get office blocks,
[02:38.34] highways and shopping malls.
[02:41.75] Those shopping centres are advancing,
[02:50.84] covering the hills.
[02:52.96] This one has twenty restaurants.
[02:57.59] To glut away our ills.
[03:03.06] Back at the institutions
[03:17.13] that wait beyond these walls.
[03:21.71] Guards live in houses in a row,
[03:25.00] and they're behind the fences too.
[03:37.25] Radio waves don't like concrete
[03:40.81] if your driving in a car.
[03:43.46] you're trying to get a message through.
[03:48.16] You have the radio on.
[03:52.56] Your driving under an overpass
[03:55.62] and the music's power is gone.
