Hurting our minds By the things that we say Or is it just that bad 'Cause we take it that way? They justify sin By calling it art But each time they sing it They harden their heart, well Here we are, the innocent children But what will we be like tomorrow? The sticks and the stones I can fight on my own It's their words that are causing me sorrow (Chorus) Leading them away Into the shadows In everything they say With freedom they speak With hatred they say No lines have been drawn So let's keep it that way But who's gonna choose To put on the shoes Of the victims they speak of In rhythms they use They're robbing our tills With paraphrased thrills Enticed by their lustful desire You say what can I do? It's catch twenty-two When I speak I'm just fanning the fire (Repeat Chorus) Should we do as we please And risk their disease Is heaven just to hard to sell? I'm sharing tonight My God given right To save others from burning in hell
