lyrics

Put men on the ground, send here to there
These boots I wear, they wouldn’t hurt a hair
Disturbing sounds and smoke all around
But times are different now

When there’s one real leader
Comes one mind reader
Don’t play those games they like to play

Party don’t always mean having fun
Antipathy and guns, disgrace, then run
Our pride don’t work that way

And if your biggest problem is a broken music box
Then you got a lot to live for, you got a lot to hope for
The gear’s too small, it can’t be replaced
Just break through the walls and you better say
No love’s too small for the human race

Sanctify in the color of your skin
Don’t let it determine
When the team you’re on and your crowd all cheer
Who will remember he was even here?
I promise he was here

It’s always safer to be on the inside
But when they’re extroverted to shame
When the bomb gets dropped, where were the cops?
But the man without a name

It don’t mean having fun
Antipathy and guns, disgrace, then run
Our pride don’t work that way
