You And I

I heard there was a terrible scene on the TV screen tonight

Thousands of innocent people were running for their lives

And just who do you think is to blame?

It's the man who runs your country and he does it in your name

But he would never put his own ass on the front line, no

'Cause he feels he's too important to risk his own life

So they'll use you and they'll tell you that you're brave

But when you gonna see that you are just their slave and

It's about you and I

It's about you and I

It's about you and I

It's about you and I, cause this world we live in, it's not right

And the soldiers they have all gone to war

Said they don't even know what they're fighting for

And surely it cant be that hard to survive

Yeah they'd be grateful to their gods if they made it back alive

They're wantin to feel home again

Remembering times with their family and friends

And they would never kill their own sons no

But they're quite happy to kill another mans though

And

It's about you and I

It's about you and I

It's about you and I

It's about you and I, cause this world we live in, it's not

Right oh no, you must feel the same

How can we be so small and cause so much pain

I got so many thoughts and I could list them but they go so fast

That you've missed them why didn't you listen or at least lock

Eyes with me and I'll show you I've got plenty of tricks up my sleeve

I don't hide underneath, what'd be the point sit low in my seat?

Well that just aint like me I'm here to play a soldier of the new day

I'm not afraid or ashamed to take away the slave chains so lets get

Serious it makes me fuckin furious they take away our freedom and

We're not even curious so wake up get your make up and shake up

And if you're not feelin nervous then you will once you've heard this

We've gotta go out and save the day aid We have gotta go out and

Stop the pain we've gotta be wise and promise to change the minds

Of all the evil decisions coming from high positions you cant just listen

To every law in this system or abide by every wrong that they've named

Right ah huh pur voices are getting stronger everyday every step we

Take forward is a step they'll back away! Is a step they'll back away Is

A step they'll back away

After its all quiet and still, see I know the people can and I sure hope the people will

Rise up greater than ever before despite their awful past and despite this awful war

And how did it become that we could let this be?

Only seeing what those polytricksta's wanted us to see?

I can only hope to see them on the street one day

'Cause I'd point my finger at them and I'd scream shame!

It's about you and I, It's about you and I

It's about you and I It's about you and I

It's about you and I, It's about you and I

It's about you and I, It's about you and I

'Cause this world we live in, it's not right
