Shame

Shame, relent
Be ashamed, repent
You feel shame extend through your soul

Know it hurts to say it
Know it brings me pain
In my head, I know it
But my spirit fills with shame

Noticed I would drop my guard
Only when I can't see
No one around me, at least no one who look like me

I can't talk the way you do, I wasn't raised the same
But every time I look at you
My skyline clouds again

Shame, relent
Be ashamed, repent
You feel shame extend through your soul

Sorry, I apologize, I
Don't think I can change
The way that I now see the world, your people still seem strange

Your language, it burdens me
My heritage is my cage
I don't know how we got here
Born from graves that shake with rage

Shame, relent
Be ashamed, repent
You feel shame extend through your soul

You don't get to rule me out
Because you left me on my own
You don't get win this fight
Because you lost me in your home

Shame, relent
Be ashamed, repent
You feel shame extend through your soul

I will say what I will be
Nobody lived my life
None of you presides on what is wrong or what is right

I sat here crying, screaming from your sins
Watching so helpless as I saw mind jump out of skin

Shame, relent
Be ashamed, repent
You feel shame extend through your soul

Juggernaut, juggernaut, juggernaut ballet
Discordant, discordant, discord seranade
