about

"But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate, we can not consecrate, we can not hallow, this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract."
-Abraham Lincoln at Gettysburg, PA, November 19, 1863.

lyrics

Get back, are you black or white?
Nobody seems to care about the things inside.
This is by design, nobody sees beyond what they've been given to see.
Bite me. Turn away your gaze.
There are things much more important than the words I say.
Fight me on a Facebook page, when you don't even know why you think that way.

Divided we all fall down. We can't stand til we stand together.
I'm fighting for my own, I can't bear this weight alone.
Divided we all fall down, but no one wants to break the silence.
If we could just come together, we could make this hell our home.

Why, of all the demons of our days, do we choose to fight our battles over skin we cannot change?
I would rather everyone go blind than have to suffer for the ignorance of pointless chosen sides.
We cannot walk the path paved by the ones before us.
We cannot walk the way or talk the way we did before.

We cannot dedicate. We cannot consecrate. We cannot hallow this ground.
