The places that we live and the livin' that we did
The places we were put and the things we were given
He sings that they talk
But they took away our pride, but they didn't take our lives
They took away the things that made us feel alive

Said, ooh ooh, what have we become?
What have we become?
Said, ooh ooh, how did this become?
How did this become?

In old woman, we flex from the East to the West
She thinks of her grandmother and her grandfather
And the strings that they had
Now she looks to the arm, saw them sniffin' on their drugs
The drink in there has stolen so many souls
And flooded her sacred blood

She says, "Ooh ooh, what have we become?
What have we become?"
She says, "Ooh ooh, how did this become?
How did this become?"

She says, "Ooh ooh, the bottle took my son
It took away my son"
She says, "Ooh ooh, where are we gonna run?
What have we become?"

She says, "Ooh ooh, what have we become?
What have we become?"
She says, "Ooh ooh, how did this become?
How did this become?"

She says, "Ooh ooh, see the bottle took my son
It took away my son"
She says, "Ooh ooh, where are we gonna run?
What have we become?"
