Children are taught to hate
|
Parents just couldn't wait
|
Some are rich and some are poor
|
Others will just suffer more
|
Have you ever been ashamed
|
And felt society try to keep you down, I begin to watch things change
|
And see them turn around
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Turn around
|
They'll try to keep you down
|
Turn around, turn around
|
Don't drag me down
|
|
Ignorance is like a gun in hand
|
Reach out to the promised land
|
Your history books are full of lies
|
Media-blitz gonna dry your eyes
|
Have you ever been afraid
|
And felt society try to keep you down, I begin to watch things change
|
And see them turn around
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Ignorance is like a gun in hand, reach out to the promised land
|
Your history books
|
Are full of lies, media-blitz gonna dry your eyes
|
You're eighteen
|
Wanna be a man
|
Your granddaddy's in
|
The Klu Klux Klan
|
Taking two steps foward
|
And four steps back
|
Gonna go to the White House
|
And paint it black
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
