It's the oldest story that is known to man
How can you believe in something you don't understand
You don't understand
Preacher can you tell me, what was his masterplan?
The human race is a plague
I'm reminded every single day
Every single day
The war on race will run for generations
And it will pass on through to your children's children
We won't save ourselves
We chose a world run by religion when
Blood is spilt over mixed decision
You could be anyone
You could be anywhere
Born into a different skin unaware
The only thing keeping you sane
Is the expectation of divine reward
In vein you'd die for his name
Playing god is our favourite game
And now we're nothing but slaves
To the choice we made
Left to disintegrate
The war on race will run for generations
And it will pass on through to your children's children
We won't save ourselves
We won't save ourselves
We stood back and accepted segregation
When playing god has only bred devastation
Life could be so much worse
When you were brought into this world
With no choice of who you want to be
I have no sympathy x2
