Drowning Lyrics

Drowning lyrics

Trouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right



 Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls?



 Tired of hearin' this shit about ...



 Time to make the world a better place



 



 Why must we hate one another?



 Well no matter what we gotta live together



 Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see



 When we pass on the street what do you wanna see



 



 Peace coming is all I gotta say



 Wanna turn and run away



 They're just telling you how they see it



 Right or wrong they don't care, you wish that they would quit



 



 chorus:



 



 Drowning in a sea of tears



 Hatred trying to hide your fears



 Living only for yourself



 Hating everybody else



 Cause they don't look like you



 



 Nancy singing it's a hard life wherever you go



 About some fat racist living in Chicago



 Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone



 Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son?



 



 Why must we hate one another?



 When the people in the church, they tell me you're my brother



 You don't walk like me, ... you don't talk like me, ...



 Go back to Africa, I just don't understand



 



 (chorus)



 



 I'm trying to be someone that he could look up to, but



 When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see



 I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man



 No I'm not like you



 Why do you hate me so



 I don't know, I don't know, I don't know



 Hating everybody else cause they don't look like you
