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 heritage not hate
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
P.E.'s 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
Nanci 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
Saying 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
