Born Branded |
Jesus called, he wont be coming for dinner tonight |
Democracy cancelled out, some kind of fight |
So tell me how am I supposed to eat alone? |
When all of my butlers have gone, my nannies have gone |
On the morning of my birth |
I must have wondered at the earth |
I must have seen the trees like adam showed them to eve |
But now I am american and white |
All I know is anxiety and fright |
Now love is something I must search for to find |
Jesus called, he wont be coming for dinner love |
Democracy cancelled out for the final time |
Im beggin brothers and sisters cut your leashes free now |
We were born branded, we were born branded, we were born branded |
We were born second-handed down |
The shephard is in a field of reality |
Blames the sheep for lost possibilities |
The sheep may be lost but the shephard is just as lost |
A shephard is a man afraid of Losing all the things he made up to Keep his feet planted high above the field |
And Im talkin about mother, father, sister, brother |
Teacher, preacher, anyone who dares to tell you where to stand |
I say the love is in your hands |
Just look at the world, dont try to understand |
We were born branded, second-handed down |
We were born branded, second-handed down |
