Blood on the Sand |
We wave our flags, we swallow fear like medicine |
We kiss the hands of profiteers and their congressmen |
But I’ve seen too much (of this fear and hate) |
I’ve had enough (and I’m not afraid) |
To raise a shout, to make it clear |
This has to end |
There’s blood on the sand, there’s blood in the street |
And there’s a gun in my hand, or there might as well be |
And I’m sick of it — I’m so sick of this |
We panic at the sight of different-colored skin |
And we’ve got a plan to justify each mess we’re in |
But I’ve seen too much (of this fear and hate) |
I’ve had enough (and I’m not afraid) |
To take a stand, to make it right — this has to end |
There’s blood on the sand, there’s blood in the street |
And there’s a gun in my hand, or there might as well be |
And I’m sick of it — I’m so sick of this |
Fear will kill your mind and steal your love as sure as anything |
Fear will rob you blind and make you numb to others' suffering |
And I’ve felt its touch too many times and I’ve had enough |
I’ve had enough! |
There’s blood on the sand, there’s blood in the street |
And there’s a gun in your hand, or there might as well be |
Are you sick of it? |
I’m so sick of this |
There’s blood on the sand, there’s blood in the street |
There’s a gun in your hand, or there might as well be |
Aren’t you sick of it? |
I’m just sick of this |
Cause I’m sick, I’m sick, I’m sick |
I’m so sick of this shit |
