Don't you get tired

Of listening to the cover up

Sounds like a broken old record

When the needle gets stuck



You got your media honeys

Using their T.V. voice

Tellin' you what you done decided

As if you had any choice



And didn't they cry and worry

'bout people of color

And didn't they mostly turn away

Keep us afraid of each other

And you know it's a lie,

it ain't about people of color

The American Dream betrayed

And all of us feel the same rage

And it won't go away



Isn't it strange,

Ain' t it a mystery

How did he get it in his head

Somehow he could speak for me



Hey! If what he's been a' saying

Is actually what he believes

Then one of us surely is a fool

And you know that he thinks that it's me



And didn't they cry and worry,

'bout people of color

And didn't they mostly turn away,

Keep us afraid of each other

And you know it's a lie,

It ain't about people of color

The American Dream betrayed

And all of us feel the same rage,

And it won't go away



Somebody wants us divided

Someone of evil intent

Trying to confuse and control

The minds of the innocent



And isn't it time

Good people have got to speak up

And you'll know exactly what to say

When you've finally had enough



Don't you go try

And blame it on people of color

And don't you dare turn away,

Keep us afraid of each other

Cause you know it's a lie

It ain't about people of color

The American Dream betrayed

And all of us feel the same rage,

And it won't go away



Won't go away

Won't go away

Won't go away
