children are taught to hate
parents just couldn't wait
some are rich and some are poor
others will just suffer more
have you ever been ashamed
and felt society try to keep you down?
i begin to watch things change - and see them turn around
they'll try to keep you down
ignorance like a gun in hand
reach out to the promised land
your history books are full of lies
media-blitz gonna dry your eyes
have you ever been afraid
and felt society try to keep you down?
you're eighteen wanna be a man
your granddaddy's in the ku klux klan
taking two steps forward and four steps back
don't drag me down
