The Scream

A verdict heard by the jury's word...they're lying

I watch as the victims of the slave ships battle with the demons inside

But no wrong ever righted or proved by the innocent dying

I pray from the ashes of the ruins, the answer will rise

[Chorus]

Hey (the scream)

Hear their screams as they rise from the ashes

Hey

Lord save the soul who can hear the scream

A child is born to a world that is slowly dying

He chooses to march to the beat of a different drum

A man lays dead in the street, his mama is crying

The people, they measure this man by the damage he's done

[Chorus]

Lord praise the man who can hear the scream

Forgive us for our sins, I never meant the things I did

I never meant, I never meant, I never meant

[Chorus: x 2]
