People

歌詞

When I was young I saw people helping people all the time Because you were people-helping-people in your prime I thought that people-loving-people were the norm Because you were people-loving-people before the long dark storm But now you're selfish and mean, your eyes glued to a screen And what titillates you is depraved and obscene And I know that it's dangerous to judge But man you gotta find the truth and when you find that truth don't budge Until the truth you found begins to change And it does, I know I know. And when you love the truth enough you start to tell it all the time And when it gets you into trouble you discover you don't mind 'Cause if good is finally gonna trump Then man you gotta take stock and you gotta take your lumps Or else they trickle down into someone else's cup below. You know I wanna know who are these people blaming their sins on the fall And who are these people Well if I'm honest with myself at all -- these are my people Man what else can I say You are my people We're the same in so many ways But then your eyes turned green and you broke the machine That when handed to you was still kinda functioning And I know that it's dangerous to judge But man you gotta find the truth And when you find that truth don't budge Until the truth you found begins to change And it does, I know I know When you love the truth enough you start to tell it all the time When it gets you into trouble you discover you don't mind 'Cause if good is finally gonna trump Then man you gotta take stock and you gotta take your lumps Or else they trickle down into someone else's cup below You know
