Land of the 1000 Hills
Have you seen the young man bleeding to death
Dying but hopeful to the very last breath
Killed by his neighbors misguided hand
Killing his brothers incited on command -
Have you seen the houses burning to coal
All their burned bodies have been thrown in a hole
Hatred took over under bright springtime skies
Posessed by the devil, he looks through their eyes – spreading lies
Rwanda is burning – no one's concerned
Hundreds of thousands never returned
The UN gave up their mission for peace
Letting down millions of refugees
Have you seen the young girl bein raped by some kid
Sixteen years old, doesn't know what he just did
Raised by soldiers, a child with a gun
Never played in the backyard with his friends in the sun
Have you seen the streets bloody and red
Genocide took place leaving behind the dead
Wiped out generations on a thousand hills
United Nations just watched the monster's skills – and it kills
Dying but hopeful to the very last breath
Killed by his neighbors misguided hand
Killing his brothers incited on command -
Have you seen the houses burning to coal
All their burned bodies have been thrown in a hole
Hatred took over under bright springtime skies
Posessed by the devil, he looks through their eyes – spreading lies
Rwanda is burning – no one's concerned
Hundreds of thousands never returned
The UN gave up their mission for peace
Letting down millions of refugees
Have you seen the young girl bein raped by some kid
Sixteen years old, doesn't know what he just did
Raised by soldiers, a child with a gun
Never played in the backyard with his friends in the sun
Have you seen the streets bloody and red
Genocide took place leaving behind the dead
Wiped out generations on a thousand hills
United Nations just watched the monster's skills – and it kills
