What if all you said was done
Would you be careful who you told to leave?
And what if all the things you loved
Were given over to the hands of thieves?
And what became of that man walking tall?
I ran ahead to sweep the sidewalks clean
I could not bear to see a dangerous path choosed
But your mind corrodes from apathy
Your privileges abused
And what if all the pain you caused
That dog came around and your hair was plucked out?
And what if you were in a closet
Forced to do nothing but hear your mother shout?
And what became of that man walking tall?
I ran ahead to sweep the sidewalks clean
I could not bear to see a dangerous path choosed
But your mind corrodes with apathy
Your privileges abused
