If All These Things Are True

Title: If All These Things Are True

VERSE

Evil things from outer space
Have come to exterminate the race
All blacks and browns and reds beware
They filter death from in the air

Try to run but won't get far
The devil walks in my backyard
He speaks to me in mother's voice
The mirror says I've got no choice

CHORUS

But if all these things are true
I feel sorry for you and your families
While millions lay in wait, I debate
Whether this could really happen to me

VERSE

And now the headache's getting worse
The alphabet has been reversed
I'm dancing nude as if possessed
The TV says it's not a test

It's like some unholy joke
My generation's all on dope
The brothers have been sold a lie
By a nation practicing genocide

CHORUS

And if all these things are true
I feel sorry for you and your families
While millions lay in wait, I debate
Whether this is really happening to me

BRIDGE

And then they said
"Did you get your shot?"
"We can give you wings!"
"Satan's got your mother pulling strings!"
"See the poor little boy
Dancing like a dime-store toy
Feeling like the man who would be king."

VERSE

And now the evil deed is done
I've saved the world for everyone
Or maybe not, but then perhaps
That's when my whole world had collapsed

You can run but never hide
From angry voices locked inside
I feel my soul has been condemned
I wish I knew what I know now then

CHORUS

And if all these things are true
I feel sorry for you and your families
While millions lay in wait, I debate
Whether this is really happening to me

And if all these things are true
I feel sorry for you and your families
While millions lay in wait, I debate
Whether this is really happening to me
