Have you ever asked yourself
Why people sell their lives for wealth
They choose to work in slavery
In hope of finally becoming free
A thousand bodies are bound to few heads
The work of thousands is less valued than one head’s productive time
And now you see them running
The warlords are commanding
The ants are too afraid to lose their so beloved positions
So they accept their program
And take their freedom loans
The truth remains hidden behind a lovely flower curtain
I wanna fly to the sky, so high,
'Cause I’m sick
Of just getting by, so I try,
Until my paper wings
Kill me
Have you ever asked yourself
Why some ethnic groups are despised by others
How can one possibly deserve
More of any good than a million people on this earth
Lines of prejudice
Your word against mine
Facts out of context
An enemy of your own design
Talking, keep on talking, keep on talking, keep on talking
And we talk, talk, talk,
All day long
Talk, talk, on and on
Do we really wanna find something that’s called solution?
Sleeping, keep on sleeping, keep on sleeping, keep on sleeping
And we sleep, sleep, sleep,
Every year
We sleep, that’s why we bleed
Do we really wanna find something that’s called solution?
Oh, I just
Just want to
Just want to fly to the sky
'Cause I’m sick
Of just getting by, so I try,
Until my paper wings
Kill me
And now you see them running
The warlords are commanding
The ants are too afraid to lose their so beloved positions
So they accept their program
And take their freedom loans
The truth remains hidden behind a lovely flower curtain
And now we see them running
The warlords are commanding
The ants are too afraid to lose their so beloved positions
So they accept their program
And take their freedom loans
The truth remains hidden behind a lovely flower curtain
Set me free
Free my mind
I’ll leave it far behind
Break this cage
Let me fly
This dove seeks
A new sky
I wanna fly to the sky, so high,
'Cause I’m sick
Of just getting by, so I try,
Until my free-grown wings
Kill me
