Try to sympathize but they pass me by,
like a river rushing to the sea,
but oh this flow goes where no one knows,
and there's no where that I'd rather be
and right now I can't see no light,
and I hope I'm not blind for long,
and I don't know what you been told, but I'm just gonna sing this song, Come on now
Can't you recognize when a rich man lies,
or is it just another part of the times?
You think locking him up will be enough,
but it's just another part of the crime,
and if you can not understand,
can't tell another right from wrong,
if you wanna go, just let me know,
and I'll see you after I move on
