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
