[Verse 1] If I had a nickel for every single time I've tried to cla**ify the populace around me with a word Or a catchy phrase, I could quit my job for good And play Nintendo until my fingers ached [Verse 2] Am I an idiot, too lazy to think twice? I point the finger, but I can't take my own advice I put a name on something and ever since I've made an art of building my counterfeit intelligence [Verse 3] Seemingly to me I am straightening a world of cluttered thoughts And a debris inside my head But I think instead of prejudiced
And I give people names to make me feel safe [Verse 4] How does it feel what does it take to make me understand? If I could only walk a mile in the shoes of another man If I could look out through his eyes And know what it means to bleed the same red blood that I do [Verse 5] What is economic status, and tell me what is race? Who decides to Cla**ified taxonomy of grace? If one man gets less that another is it true That he is all that different That he is less than you?
