Is it us against them Is it we or just me Forced to chose our reality Abundance or scarcity Hope and trust or apathy Restless and powerless and under attack Put up those walls so they can't come back Condone their destruction to guard what's mine Believe all the lies I'm fed all the time Claimed this land drew up invisible lines On false assumptions of what was mine With little respect for their sacred rights I used my power to disregard all life Don't believe the world will ever change So I sit and I wait for someone else to take the reins The world is sick and painful to see So I shut my eyes and I turn on the tv The world is hurting and so am I I distract myself to keep the tears from my eyes I pray for justice, compassion, and truth I take responsibility for all that I do
