lyrics

And they warn you not to trust your own two eyes
And they mandate what you may not emphasize
And they tell you you must not criticize
But their words say colonize
Don’t look away

Oh, oh, oh, colonize
Oh, oh, colonize
Oh, oh, colonize
Their words say colonize

And they tell you it is weak to empathize
And they say you must ignore the mothers’ cries
And they swear and swear that the father terrorize
But their words say colonize
And I see them

Oh, oh, oh, colonize
Oh, oh, colonize
Oh, oh, colonize
Their words say colonize

And they’re watching us when we rise up
And they’re watching us when we give up
And they’re watching us, watching us
When we are watching them watching us die
So we’re calling eyes, don’t look away
Calling eyes, don’t look away
Calling eyes, don’t look away
Calling eyes, don’t look away
