A bit dark. A commentary on where we are headed.
Make You Sorry You Were Born
Here I sit a wondering, what can I say?
Dark winds are blowing, a stench of decay.
Nothing moving forward, instead we’re sliding back
To an old paradigm, White versus Black
Wish to hell it’d go away.
CHORUS
In this screwed up universe, the rich make all the rules…
If they smell a difference, you’re branded as a fool…
Don’t you dare disagree; they’ll target you with scorn…
Make you sorry you were born.
Here I sit a thinking, what can I do?
For Black, Brown, Yellow, Red men, and the Jew
Though we all are human, some live by different rules
Who the hell do-ya think you fool?
Our very own messed up world view.
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL
Here I sit a wondering, what can I say?
Dark winds are blowing, a stench of decay.
Nothing moving forward, instead we’re sliding back
To an old paradigm, White versus Black
Wish to hell it’d go away.
CHORUS

Cool arrangement, those off beat fiddle chord really appeal to my ears and soulful Violin solo is just right. Great combo of lyrics and music.
