Verse 1:
Some say you’re a savior
Some treat you like god
They say you’re a remedy
To correct what the world’s done wrong
Some say you’re a change to make all things fair
Some say you’re an answer to an age old prayer
A great composer of our liberty song

Bridge:
But what have you done
To lift us up off the ground
Or shine a light in the dark?
You say you’ve come so far

Chorus:
But who are you to claim that you are wise
When all you do is blind us with your lies
‘Cause I got friends who’re dying
I’ve seen their mother’s cry
And we both know
These lives we can’t afford
So lie to us no more

Verse 2:
One color abhors you
The other sings praise
The center’s conflicted now
While the rich quietly bless your name
The poor who believe are easily mislead
In wars you will wage, civilians wind up dead
All of the glory
But none of the blame.
