Paper Planes

We all say the same things over and over and over and over
But we won't change the same things doing the same things over and over
We've got a problem you might know that and you might show that
It's not the first time that this problem has resurfaced and not drowned out
We live in a society divided by oh so many things
Economic stability or our political views on the world
The oppression of people down to racial segregation
The past the present the future in every nation it goes on

Systemic nature is a never-ending loop
Isolated societies unable to break free
But I doubt it affects you it's not a problem that you face
No matter your color or where you're from inhuman race
'Cause we're from the middle no far-left far-right far wrong
We don't seem to get it and if we get it we move on
It's our social nature we try implementing change
But the flock turns its back when the media goes away

Just think about the message that you, that you all reflect
Guided by those public figures that all your friends accept
But you're on your own now why can't you make your own stand
How not why not or do you need a helping hand
I hear your voice you've got a choice that you allege
All 'cause you can from your white middle class your privilege
Yet all we do is we just take the easy way
We see unrest and we just tap a paper plane

We all say the same things
Over and over and over
But we won't change the same things
Doing the same things over and over
With our paper planes

Paper planes we rely on
Paper planes won't change the world
Paper planes we rely on
Paper planes won't change the world

We all say the same things
Over and over and over
But we won't change the same things
Doing the same things over and over
With our paper planes
