Oversight-White
We find ourselves down a tower built with the desire to be higher...
Higher than what we used to be
As we look down on the FIRST NATIONS and turn back on truthfulness,
The line that defines our existence is vanishing in the air
And our nature remains the same, only monuments change
A fact that has come to be the illness of trees, rivers, animals, humanity
An incomplete bible suggesting that we should pledge allegiance to the empire´s flag
Now tell me how you do it
Now tell me why you are so blind
This ain´t a utopian society even though some pretend it is so
A colonizing c**ture that has spread capitalism among a righteous civilization
Now look what we´ve become
Wage slaves and a gun in one hand
Everyday we tolerate the police state that is being established by our own ignorance
It seems to me that everything that has been built so far is white
Everything they say is a pure pretence
And i know that behind this masquerate no one is free
Once again we´re hostages
Compelled to witness this painful disaster that makes us all numb
We´ve got to see what they try to hide
How could hell be any worse?
How does it feel to know that you have been using people for more that a hundred years?
Keep ignoring your origins
Don´t you understand that this is what we are?
A lousy poem that is not revised at all
We are incomplete, skin deep
And we´d better understand now ´cause we´re running out of time
