I had a childhood friend
Sworn together til the end
Playing tag and wrestling
Talking about the birds and bees
He asks if I believe in God
And then I tell him what's my story
He says I'm gonna burn in hell
Because that's what his parents told him
Hatred is taught
truth just can't be bought
All of our lives
We think that we're so wise
But It cuts you down size
When it's staring in your eyes
We're born with open hearts
And a blank slate on our souls
Old grudges we are forced to bear
poison the water
& put-up the walls
Safely behind our screens
Spewing trolling scapegoating
No one can touch us now
Lets start a fire and burn this whole place to the ground
Hatred is taught
Truth just can't be bought
All of the lies
We tell to feel so wise
But It cuts you down size
When it's staring in your eyes
