Wes Dorethy - Evade Us Still Lyrics

If you asked me what I thought about recent days
I'm afraid that I wouldn't have all that much to say
I'm a walking contradiction, I'm a migrating bird
That's lost its direction and connection to the earth
But I know something's missing
Yeah something is wrong
I turn on the TV to see what's going on
I see millions of people with hate in their hearts
Fear in their eyes and it looks just like ours
Can we all just agree no one's right all the time
Maybe all that we need is some sleep here tonight
But we'll lie and we'll cheat, we'll fight till we kill
And the answers evade us still
So we sit here and wait for the next plight to arrive
A virus, a riot, or a racial divide
And we'll always find a way to split it into two sides
Fight to the death over who gets the right
To pass down the torch and to whom it is cast
But the men up their ruling are a whole different class
They'll sit in their riches while you and I scrounge
In the streets down below for whatever's left around
Can we all just agree no one's right all the time
Maybe all that we need is some sleep here tonight
But we'll lie and we'll cheat, we'll fight till we kill
And the answers evade us still
And it isn't the first time, surely won't be the last
Mankind tends to be kind of funny like that
You give someone some power, then there's never enough
Yeah, but how can we blame them? It's in all of us
Under the surface, all fatally flawed
Masterfully fabricating our facade
When the entropy finally swallows it all
Well, I hope we'll go down holding hands
You see, nobody's ever right all of the time
Maybe all that we need is a little sleep
But we'll lie and we'll cheat, we'll fight till we kill
And the answers evade us still
The answers evade us still
