Lyrics Some Years Ago - Stevie Wonder
Once
upon
the
blood
of
many
We
were
cast
as
less
than
any
To
so
much
a
point
some
still
believe
Smaller
scene,
a
world
much
bigger
Where
it′s
okay
to
play
with
the
word
"nigger"
Yet
would
we
knowing
all
the
grief
and
death
it
breeds
But
that
was
some
years
ago
When
we
had
more
hope
than
money
A
time
and
a
world
ago
When
our
hearts
were
made
of
steel
Back
then
it
was
all
about
Stamping
all
the
hatred
out
So
that
now
there
would
be
no
doubt
Who
wouldn't
have
to
heal
But
why
if
so
long
ago
We′re
seen
safe
only
when
funny
As
if
there's
no
need
to
show
Deep
inside
what
we
really
feel
Yet
those
things
when
brought
to
view
Seem
to
bother
but
a
few
No,
if
we
don't
come
for
real
Our
wounds
won′t
heal
Black
silhouettes
used
as
target
practice
There′s
Darkie
Toothpaste
borne
out
of
this
malice
These
stereotypical
images
come
to
mind
Figurines,
mascots,
postcards
of
us
hanging
Most
recent
here,
of
one
of
us
dragging
The
propaganda
machine
must
tell
the
truth
This
time
stop
lying
But
that
was
some
years
ago
When
we
had
more
hope
than
money
A
time
and
a
world
ago
When
our
hearts
were
made
of
steel
Back
then
it
was
all
about
Stamping
all
the
hatred
out
So
that
now
there
would
be
no
doubt
Who
wouldn't
have
to
heal
But
why
if
so
long
ago
We′re
seen
safe
only
when
funny
As
if
there's
no
need
to
show
Deep
inside
what
we
really
feel
Yet
those
things
when
brought
to
view
Seem
to
bother
but
a
few
No,
if
we
don′t
come
for
real
Our
wounds
won't
heal
But
that
was
some
years

When
we
had
more
hope
than

A

and
a

When
our
hearts

of
steel
Back
then
it
was
all
about
Stamping
all
the
hatred
out
So
that
now
there
would
be
no
doubt
Who
wouldn′t
have
to
heal
Oh,
what
if
so
long
ago
We're
seen
safe
only
when
funny
As
if
there's
no
need
to
show
Deep
inside
what
we
really
feel
Yet

No,
if
we
don't
come
for
real
Our
wounds
won′t
heal
