How Did We Get Here? |
| How did we get here? |
| What does it mean? |
| Everyone’s hiding |
| And no one can breathe |
| While they search for the person |
| Whose head hands in shame |
| Who opened the test tube |
| That holds all the blame |
| But the shame of it all |
| Is that he doesn’t exist, so tell me |
| Why does it feel like |
| There is something we’ve missed |
| We’re caught in a crossfire |
| Between fiction and facts |
| They claim we’ve moved forward |
| When we’ve only gone back |
| Locked down and forgotten |
| We’re all dazed and confused |
| As if life is a game you can play |
| But you know you’re gonna lose |
| Is this all that there is? |
| Do we know y’all how to live? |
| Is our freedom worth the price |
| Of countless deaths, countless lives? |
| A people in union |
| Are not a people in chains |
| They are finding their voices |
| By using their brains |
| But do people of color |
| Just get used and abused? |
| So that people in power |
| Are still able to choose |
| And why does money and violence |
| Create hunger and greed? |
| And this human condition |
| Require so much need |
| Tell me, where are we going? |
| Oh, where are we bound? |
| Have we really learned nothing? |
| Thrown out all of the gifts |
| That we’ve found |
| Can we change, find the source? |
| Rediscover all we’ve lost |
| Pull back fast lest we sink |
| Arrest this fall into the brink |
| A change must come |
| A change must come |
| A change must come |
| A change must come |
