Verse 1
Born into a world
We don't understand
Neutral and open
To any and everything
Just waiting to be taught
Whether to hate or love
And given reasons why
A total blank slate
Learning day to day
From those around us
About things like race
Religion and more
And how to feel about it all
Often without
Any real reason why
Born into a world of lies
Can somebody please
Tell me why just why
Chorus
Born with no concept
Of anything
A perfect clean slate
Ideal for teaching how
To do life the right way
Can you please tell me why
We keep insisting on teaching
The wrong thing
Verse 2
Love is what
We should be teaching
But is something
Over shadowed
By hatred we teach
Without meaning to
Do so
With our actions
Tone of voice
And body language
And it's an
Everyday thing
Bullshit news
Dictating our views
And ultimately
What we believe
Based on bullshit
We are allowed to see
Welcome to the truth
Of our society
Chorus
