The Race

Lyrics

I heard there was a race
 Where we're all one race
 Color, gender, age never could dictate
 I saw there was a time
 When we valued all life
 Nobody oppressed, everyone had rights
 Suddenly, in an age where the distance between us is binary
 All we see, is an internal war friendly fire in the sky and respect on the floor
 Constricting like a heart attack
 A mythomaniac on the loose in the streets
 ♪
 Blood boiling with the burning heat
 Of caustic defeat, now there's no turning back
 ♪
 Ha, so we laugh while the tides all turn
 Maiting grey matter, voluntarily slaves
 Always searching for the one real truth
 So we can misconstrue it to sun our needs
 Constricting like a heart attack
 A mythomaniac on the loose in the streets!
 ♪
 Blood boiling with the burning heat
 Of caustic defeat, now there's no turning back
 ♪
 Ingesting, operant conditioning
 Divine contamination, like lye on flesh, it stings
 Trust your leaders, trust the system, reproduce, repeat
 Never question authority, never suspect deceit
 ♪
 Always on the run
 Can't remember where we're running to or what we're running from
 But we're picking up speed
 All the books and broadcast? Jettison
 Without their burden true ethics are freed
 Extract the labels that lobotomize
 And you'll realize: we are all one
 Fly or swim, fur or skin
 We're alive, abolitionists rise
 Constricting like a heart attack
 A mythomaniac on the loose in the streets
 ♪
 Blood boiling with the burning heat
 Of caustic defeat, now don't go turning back
