The Path to Literacy
Can you hate something you don't truly understand?
What gives you the right to condemn a man?
What's one more innocent laid to rest?
Wave your flag in conquest
For popularity you confessed
Tear down borders, rip down walls
The idea of invisible borders is they're nothing at all
Open a book, take what's inside
If knowledge is power, why have so many died?
How can we prepare for the future as the present falls apart?
As humans do we care, or were we just doomed from the start?
Distance yourself from wasted ideology
Retake, remake your life with blatant honesty
Honestly I think we have failed as a race to continue our own humanity
Indeed history is written, written by those who want to be remembered
Not those we should
We've lied lied... LIED to ourselves for far too long
Start looking back on our few precious minutes of history
How will you remember how are you remembered?
It's never the way you want. They'll never tell you the truth
Intelligence does makes you dangerous
Knowledge makes the flock stray. Now leave the herd
What gives you the right to condemn a man?
What's one more innocent laid to rest?
Wave your flag in conquest
For popularity you confessed
Tear down borders, rip down walls
The idea of invisible borders is they're nothing at all
Open a book, take what's inside
If knowledge is power, why have so many died?
How can we prepare for the future as the present falls apart?
As humans do we care, or were we just doomed from the start?
Distance yourself from wasted ideology
Retake, remake your life with blatant honesty
Honestly I think we have failed as a race to continue our own humanity
Indeed history is written, written by those who want to be remembered
Not those we should
We've lied lied... LIED to ourselves for far too long
Start looking back on our few precious minutes of history
How will you remember how are you remembered?
It's never the way you want. They'll never tell you the truth
Intelligence does makes you dangerous
Knowledge makes the flock stray. Now leave the herd
