Mindless Behavior

Tell me something that I don’t know
We breathe the same air,
We shed similar tears
Cause we lived under the same sun
 Man, Woman and child
Somehow, you haven’t got the message yet
With all your wealth
Your buffalo soldiers
Why hold the world hostage
^
You can skip death
Even if you lock yourself
Away from the world
Mindless behavior is
All he knows
You can’t buy the air that we breathe
You might try
 Must you 


Launched a nuclear war
