about

A song about the refugee crisis.

lyrics

Man on the run
hunting for fun
a mother's son
Menaced by delusion
Having a tail
predicted to fail
hate does prevail
NO more
Where's your mind been
driven by spleen
lack of esteem
Menaced by delusion
Time for a change
wits rearrange
stop to estrange
Right now

Why can't you see, that we're aware of
the things you say and what you mean by
expressing all those fears
It's all so evident, so come around
and fix your broken life
before your thoughts are numbed
and your mind plays tricks.

It's hard to imagine the pain out of reach
it takes a lil boy's corpse flooded on a tourists beach
to start commiseration and stop listless confession
and still most people mistake self-pity as compassion.
But even in those moments when most hearts shower tears
there are people spreading hate based on obsolete fears
Unaware of the facts they believe what appears
to be fact by the fact it was like that all the years.

War!
Man on the run
this is no fun
a mother's son
NO MORE
Having a tail
predicted to fail
hate does prevail
Menaced by delusion
Where's your mind been
driven by spleen
lack of esteem
RIGHT NOW
No time for change
no wits rearranged
completely estranged
Menaced by delusion

Men aced by delusion or menaced by delusion
both cause confusion and later reclusion
living under conditions made for constant profusion
some people dislike to be part of this solution.
Who wanna be alone and undercooled in the dark,
who wanna get blown to pieces in a leisure park,
who wanna see his home faced with turmoil to spark?
So how can you deprive others the right to embark
on Fort Europa, the Eurasian peak
of safety and wealth, these are goals worth to seek.
So please stop casting stones on the weak,
act humanly, not like a yesterday's freak.
The concept of so called reciprocity
should be seen way more globally,
cuz what we now give intentionally
could equal the things we once took indirectly.

If the people screaming “we're the people!” really are the people, I don't want to be part of that people anymore.
Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.

We must learn our lesson
You must learn your lesson

We the people
If you're afraid of the foreign better open your mind
We the people
being anti-foreign is like playing intentionally blind
We the people
instead of telling others how to behave with moral restraints
We the people – try bettering yourself and perhaps
this betters this world just before it faints.
We the people
try bettering yourself and perhaps
this betters this world just before it faints.
