[Verse 1]
Bbm             Gb
   Children are taught to hate
Db             Ab
  Parents just couldn't wait
Bbm                  Gb
   Some are rich and some are poor
Db                 Ab
  Others will just suffer more
Bbm              Gb
   Have you ever been ashamed
    Db           Ab              Bbm
And felt society try to keep you down
           Gb
I begin to watch things change

And see them turn around
      Bbm  Gb
Turn around

Db                 Ab
  Reach out to the promised land
Bbm                       Gb
   Your history books are full of lies
Db                  Ab
  Media blitz gonna dry your eyes
Bbm              Gb
   Have you ever been afraid
