Violence in the street
As history rounds to greet
And what were the lessons learned
As we beg borrowed stole and burned?

Don't try and hide the past
The spilled blood and broken glass
The history that we made
Is the history they overcame

You don't know whats been happening here
I can see it oh so clear
Don't deny whats been happening here
I can see it

If there were violins in the street
No one would be here to great
No imagery to portray
and is this the price we pay

You don't know whats been happening here
I can see it oh so clear
Don't deny whats been happening here
I can see it
