I hear people saying
That we should let it go
Its in the past
It doesn't matter anymore

They don't understand the reason
They'll never know why
How it felt that day
To see our people die

Well the bible says
An eye is for an eye
So before you judge me
Listen to the other side

What about the towers
How it felt to watch them fall
What about the heroes
Who had to take that call
What about our children
Hiding underneath their desks
And all their mothers stuck at home
Man it had them scared to death
Don't you tell me
That we're just a bunch of cowards
What about the towers

Its been two decades
But still it makes me mad
To think of all those workers
And the life they couldve had

It was on every channel
And every radio
They told us to duck and cover
Some never had a place to go

Yeah the bible tells us
A tooth is for a tooth
Well after all that happened
Id have to say that is the truth

What about the towers
How it felt to watch them fall
What about the heroes
Who had to take that call
What about our children
Hiding underneath their desks
And all their mothers stuck at home
Man it had them scared to death
Don't you tell me
That we're just a bunch of cowards
What about the towers
