Praise or Blame

歌詞

All throughout history You made sure your conscience be clear But there are two side to every story Here's what you don't want us to hear That they once had harmony And you could not understand How they could live so free You drove them off of their land Then you made laws to serve only you And you laughed at their spiritual way Are you deserving of praise or blame For they'll never be the same Are you deserving of praise of blame For they'll never be the same They once were royalty But you could not measure their worth Until you sold them like property The salt of their sweat fed the earth You shipped them away They worked your new found land You stripped them and gave them new names Are you deserving of praise or blame For they'll never be the same Are you deserving of praise of blame For they'll never be the same They once had God-given grace Truly a gift to behold But soon life's light left from their face Dark within your household You made them take vows To serve and obey You really must have been afraid Are you deserving of praise or blame For they'll never be the same Are you deserving of praise of blame For they'll never be the same
