Will our reign be our final tickets home Setting sail amongst shores freedom no control. These dreams I must condone make it into reality On another broken ship, where on earth are they taking me? Waking up to rows of human crocuses Chains on necks and ankles Thousands of orphans breeding, bleeding split choices of life or death nothing's left not even a righteous step I mustn't be weak though thorns may swing I shouldn't fret. Is this the cause of death Did I do something in my past To believe these horrific visions Of our race become of trash Black skinned rationed off of the pale pigment Treating us as animals dogs on a leash it's sickening Did I just see freedom oh yes a million miles away

Will our reign be our final tickets home Setting sail amongst shores freedom no control. These dreams I must condone make it into reality On another broken ship, where on earth are they taking me? Waking up to rows of human crocuses Chains on necks and ankles Thousands of orphans breeding, bleeding split choices of life or death nothing's left not even a righteous step I mustn't be weak though thorns may swing I shouldn't fret. Is this the cause of death Did I do something in my past To believe these horrific visions Of our race become of trash Black skinned rationed off of the pale pigment Treating us as animals dogs on a leash it's sickening Did I just see freedom oh yes a million miles away
