To satisfy the souls of chosen men
For ethical slavery is just an absurdity
Oh, now every child can learn a different thing
See I tried a million times but I had to change my mind
But if they had been told that day
There were promises of paradise
Oh, superiority was clearly meant to be
Oh, superiority was clearly meant to be
So where has the love all gone
Oh, sadness was the best thing I can bring
With these chains of hypocrisy, the shame of my ancestry
At the shame of my ancestry
Hey, if I was taken for a day and shown another way
As he took away the bloom above the clouds
And they were taken far away from home
How can you be alive when you are dead?
Of how I was put down where I don't belong
A troubled trail of tears will tell the take
So wanna know where, wanna know where
Since you came to crucify
That they would be sold this way
So destiny will manifest in time
As he took away the bloom above the clouds
On the inside he was dead, oh, and this is what he said
So destiny will manifest in time
Forever stained by blood in which you tread
Now every child can learn a different thing
So where has love all gone?
On the inside he was dead and this is what he said
Oh, sadness was the best thing I can bring
See I had to look carefully
Hey, if I was taken for a day and shown another way
Wanna know where, wanna know where
See I tried a million times but I had to change my mind
Woman, child and man for sale
To redefine the story line again
