I am a but a woman I'm of age yet so young Many questions never answered Walk the line come undone As I tread the trodden highway Trying to make it my way I can't help but feel something's wrong Oh and I will never bow down to a Babylon system When my people suffer, truth kept undercover Lies supplying them blue colors Have we not grown enough to see? They repeat offending In our lifetime, still confronted by Inequality, yeah We're crying, crying but no one hears Why can't you ease all our fear We're crying, crying, crying out for you What the hell are we supposed to do? Tell me Tell me I am but a man From the time once knew me And I heard so many answers That it's too hard to even tell But I learned to look out forward 'Cause we've seen the way the world works I can't help but indeed We're gonna pull out through I'll never bow down to a Babylon system No more should my people suffer For the chase of the big dollar Have we not grown enough to see? The same thing happening Is still run by a misguided old ideology We're crying, crying but no one hears Why can't you help easy all our fear We're crying, crying, crying out for you What the hell are we supposed to do? Tell me (tell me) Tell me (tell me) Talk about the promises that you never keep You're hard to believe when morality is weak Deception is powerful, what you portray seems true
Who cares what colour you are ? really. Colours change. Is A US African as dark as a African native, or a Scandinavian as white as the next person. Does it matter ?

I am a but a woman
I'm of age yet so young
Many questions never answered
Walk the line come undone
As I tread the trodden highway
Trying to make it my way
I can't help but feel something's wrong
Oh and I will never bow down to a Babylon system
When my people suffer, truth kept undercover
Lies supplying them blue colors
Have we not grown enough to see?
They repeat offending
In our lifetime, still confronted by
Inequality, yeah
We're crying, crying but no one hears
Why can't you ease all our fear
We're crying, crying, crying out for you
What the hell are we supposed to do?
Tell me
Tell me
I am but a man
From the time once knew me
And I heard so many answers
That it's too hard to even tell
But I learned to look out forward
'Cause we've seen the way the world works
I can't help but indeed
We're gonna pull out through
I'll never bow down to a Babylon system
No more should my people suffer
For the chase of the big dollar
Have we not grown enough to see?
The same thing happening
Is still run by a misguided old ideology
We're crying, crying but no one hears
Why can't you help easy all our fear
We're crying, crying, crying out for you
What the hell are we supposed to do?
Tell me (tell me)
Tell me (tell me)
Talk about the promises that you never keep
You're hard to believe when morality is weak
Deception is powerful, what you portray seems true
