Текст пісні
I sit around and wonder how the world would taste,
If things were moving slower, at a faster pace,
Every days’ a war between the human race,
I'd say that it was normal but that's not the case.
People seem to follow what they hear and share,
But never see each other without skin or hair,
We are so consumed by who or what to wear,
To notice, realize, wake up or to even care.
Why do you think your better than me
Why do you think your better than me
We’re born, we cry, we live, we die, we satisfy,
The need for validation, fabricating a lie. Imitating people that don’t know our names.
Lying, cheating, hurting, bleeding for the fame.
We’re hating on the world we live in but we shape it.
And still we elect white supremacists and rapists.
We’re vegan, we recycle and we compost,
But half our generation doesn’t even vote.
Why do you think your better than me
Why do you think your better than me
Your no better than me
Your no better than me
You and I,
We’re more alike then you will ever know baby.
Stars will cry,
When they see that we put on a show baby.
Can’t you see,
Shit is way more then it seems to be.
Can’t you see,
What’s happening is bigger than you and me.
We’re waiting for the future but we’re living in it.
Yet, somehow jail for white and rich is only a minute.
They kill, they rape, they suffocate the game so they win it.
And women are expected to just shut up and quit it.
Every other week someone you know is OD-ing.
Your mouth is open but your eyes are shut, without seeing.
On social media, the whole world seems so dandy.
But, “come inside my van, I got the sweetest candy.”
Why do you think your better than me
Why do you think your better than me
We proliferate peace, kindness and respect.
But are not too comfortable with talkin’ gender and sex.
We teach the kids the right thing is to do what we did.
