how many times.....

How many times we paint our faces?

Every day from sun up to sun down?

How many times we look in the mirrors?

Searching for the truth or what we think is right

How many times we read reports

The lies and half truths come into our minds

Why do journalists write the crab of their lives?

Is it money to help them tie into living well?

How many times the editors cow to interested parties?

They let the lies spread in print in their newspapers

How many times we have to find alternative sources?

For a world we live the truth seems hard to find

How many times we cry in vain?

We fight for a cause to better our lives

We never realize the Brutus spreading lies

We are caged in our minds through legislative laws

So how many times we paint our faces?

Living in this world we called home....

The divide and rule, the class system to boot

How many times do we cry in vain?
