Intro: Well it's far and away, not my place to answer Any query of life at all, but I believe Those who can choose and choose to stand in silence Do a great disservice to those who cannot speak And you may well decide that the right is clearly wrong But don't just blindly back the other side We'll be just as fucked with all of our money gone Not just for you, you decide Millions more are dying for you to try Looking in from the outside I've been wracking my brain, I wish someone could answer What duty do I owe this life, am I to believe That in just 20 odd years of existence One could be burdened by the crimes of racism and industry Still I had to laugh at the anger in my eyes to realise liberty and equality Often find themselves fighting on different sides That's not our plight, that won't stop the waves and plagues But it don't mean we can't be timeless in our time The guilt that I feel as a white kid is an Adam & Eve of kind See we're all born into sin The sin of the father's passed on to the child To him and back through time Tried to see more evil in the world than they'd leave behind At least in their eyes All right x2 So could it be that it's our lot in life To clean up the mess we left when we came so far, so fast It seems like it's our mess, cause we're the first to realise it It's not glamorous and we must do it in spite of Those terrible tribesmen who never perceived their own actions as crimes Yet they're both demanding justice Yeah, well surely man, that can't be right There will come a time When we finally look forward instead of always behind I hope I live to see that time
