There's something wrong inside of us

It's important to discuss

A narrow mind a hardened heart

And this is just the very start



Frustration gets the best of me

So I don't speak coherently

We are taught to go along

We need to figure out what might be wrong



You oughta know you can be inches from life

And never live at all

You oughta know that pride is our downfall

There's no need to stand up tall



No one knows what's going on

Even those who taught oppression

Most of which don't realize

Uneasy smiles and blackened eyes



Could it be there's something real

Not always known but you can feel

The presence of an absolute

That our lives can't substitute
