The Animal In Us

The animal in us
You have made us 
Your tools of manipulation
All this year's 
You have pushed us 
To the wall of no return
Yet we are brave to fight 
Back 
And when we do 
Just be sure if you can take
The animal in us 

The animal in us 
What does it take 
To be honest 
With the land that feed you 
What does it cost 
To treat the people right 
What does it means
For you when you see 
This many people dying 
In hunger 
Does our hard life keep you happy
So I advised you to look 
To the mirror
Ask your self if you can take 
The rain of change
Think if you can face 
The many after you 
When we bring out 
The animal in us 

The animal in us
Only a useless leader 
Can sell his country
Only a unless son
Can slap his mother 
Only an ungreatfull man 
Can Rob his people
With out no heart feeling
If you complain of who 
We are now 
Remember too long 
We have waited in nothingness
And that has brought out 
The animal in us
