Standard (EADGBE)

 I'm locked inside

 A land called foolish pride

 Where the man is always right

 He hates to talk but loves to fight

 Is that all right?

 On real cold days

 He loans us lots of hate

 But he says that we must pay

 To take it all away

 Is that ok?

 But I'm asking you will you stay with me

 In this land where we are free

 And I know its rough and you've had enough

 But one day we'll be happy

Bridge

 When I look into the future I see danger in its eyes

Hearts of hatred rule the land While others left outside

Killing, bleeding citizen while music slowly dies

 And I get frightened I, see I get frightened I

Chorus

Oh how, oh how I need you baby

 You keep me from going crazy

 I really need you baby, need you to stay

Oh how, oh how I love you baby

 These people are so crazy

 I really need you baby, need you to stay

She always fights

 For her man but not her rights

 Even though it's 3005

 When will we end this genocide?

 And that's not right

 Her children cry

 No food to eat and afraid as flies

 The color black means its time to die

 And nobody questions why

 Cause they're too scared to stop them now

 But I'm asking you will you stay with me

 In this land where we are free

 And I know its rough and you've had enough

 But one day we'll be happy

 When I look into the future I see danger in its eyes

Babies die before they're born and no one ever smiles

 The writers and the artists, all are paid to tell us lies

 To keep us locked inside, they keep us locked inside

Chorus

I can make a change

I can start a fire

Lord, make me love again

Father, fill me with desire

I can make a change

I can start a fire

Lord, make me love again

Father, fill me with desire
