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? (Don't you know I know)
And I know it's rough, and you've had enough,
But one day we'll be happy
And when I look into the future I see danger in it's eyes
Hearts of hatred rule the land while love is left aside
Killing plagues a citizen while music slowly dies
I get frightened I, see I get frightened I
Oh how, oh how I need you baby
To 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's there to fight) 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 it's 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 it's rough, and you've had enough,
But one day we'll be happy
Cause when I look into the future I see danger in it's eyes
Babies die before they're born and no one ever smiles
The writers and the artists all are paid to tell us lies
They keep us locked inside, they keep us locked inside!
Oh how, oh how I need you baby
To 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
I can make a change!
I can start a fire!
Lord, make me love again!
Fill me with desire
I can make a change!
I can start a fire!
Make me love again
Lord, thank You for desire!
And when I look into your pretty eyes, I almost want to cry
I think about my life, and I don't want to live a lie
How I need you baby, I need you right by my side
I need you tonight! I need you tonight!
Yeah! How I need you baby
See I can't let you go, I need you
On the other side, on the other side
I love you so, and I'll never let you go!
On the other side!
