What Have We Become |
| A preacher shuns his brother |
| Cause his bride’s a different color |
| And this is not acceptable |
| His papa taught him so It was love that he’d been preaching |
| But this was overreaching |
| The boundaries stretchin' further |
| Than his heart would choose to go Like an angel with no wings |
| Like a kingdom with no king |
| (chorus 1) |
| What have we become? |
| A self indulgent people |
| What have we become? |
| Tell me where are the righteous ones? |
| What have we become? |
| In a world degenerating |
| What have we become? |
| (chorus 2) |
| Speak your mind, look out for yourself |
| The answer to it all is a life of wealth |
| Grab all you can cause you live just once |
| You got the right to do whatever you want |
| Don’t worry about others or where you came from |
| It ain’t what you were, it’s what you have become |
| Mom and Dad are fightin' |
| As Rosie lies there crying |
| For once again she’s overheard |
| Regrets of their mistake |
| With Christmas bells a-ringing |
| Little Rosie’d leave them grieving The gift she’d give her family |
| Would be the pills she’d take |
| An inconvenient child |
| She wasn’t worth their while |
| (repeat choruses 1 and 2) |
| What about love? |
| What about God? |
| What about holiness? |
| What about mercy, compassion and selflessness? |
| You know it’s true |
| He is there for me and you |
| Doesn’t matter what you do |
| (repeat chorus 1) |
| What have we become? |
| Have we come undone? |
| What have we become? |
| Have we come undone? |
| What have we become? |
| (repeat chorus 2) |
| Selfish… ??? |
| With selfish… ??? |
| Selfish people |
| When you gonna learn? |
| Everyone of us Gathered 'round in trust |
