The Answer (Is Up To You)
The problems facing humankind
Exist because we were designed
To be completely dis-inclined to think beyond ourself
Our nature causes us to choose
That someone else should always lose
Especially when we take out cues from God's book on the shelf
Those people living over there
Have what we need and they don't care
And so we say to them
Beware cuz we're taking it from you now
Since we first crawled out from the sea
What you call yours, I'll want for me
I'll kill you, and your family will be harnessed to my plow
Will we ever grow beyond
Methods learned in a slimy pond
Is our evolution really through
If we look into our children's eyes
Will we see our own demise or will it show us
What we have to do
The answer's up to you
Yeah, the answer's up to you
You know Money governs in this land
And those who we put in command
Have let their greed get out of hand and it's time we let them go
They send our children across the sea
To kill or die by their decree
They tell us it's to keep us free but we know that's just for show
If only Mothers had the power
We'd witness mankind's finest hour
As they make the corporations cower and finally end our woes
The problems facing humankind
Exist because the mastermind
Designed us to be disinclined
To look beyond our nose
Will we ever grow beyond
Methods learned in a slimy pond
Is our evolution really through
If we look into our children's eyes
Will we see our own demise or will it show us what we have to do?
