Sad Beginning, Happy Ending
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're never walking forward,
To one step that way, we're taking two steps back.
Holding hands as one race,
We'll conquer fears and we'll stare this fight in the face.
I dream of perfect I dream that one day,
These children will grow up.
To a clean street town,
Where society's anti racial slurs won't erupt,
Into a state of skin bashing hate.
It just takes one to turn this picture from a...
Sad beginning into a happy ending.
We should be winning and not defending.
The colour of one's skin and the issues of prejudice that run.
Through society as one living under the same sun.
It's like a movie script where the good guy dies
And the bad guy gets the cred.
These broken bones that flow the same,
Will all reveal the colour red.
These broken bones that flow the same,
Will all reveal the colour red.
Hese broken bones that flow the same,
Will all reveal the colour...
Colour red
One nation, one family,
One future, proud tradition.
Sad beginning, happy ending.
Sad beginning, happy ending.
Sad beginning, happy ending.
