Clouds

Birthright, I'm standing in silence
Holding on for dear life
Reprimand the quiet
Ignorant to my compliance
Hold tight, it's getting too violent
Racing to the moonlight
Find a way to hide it
Leading myself to defiance
Who am I, who am I?
But a slave to the lies
It's my dangerous mind
Under the skin of my darkest white
Who are you, who are you?
But a slave to the news
There's a side to choose
See a disguise with no will to lose
White clouds in the sky
Yet the world around me makes them cry
Black clouds by the moon
There's a righteous world inside of you
Whole forces making the divisions
Blinded by the state and religion
Amassing themselves
I'm seeing both sides in position
On course for finding ways to listen
When all I see is lakes and the rivers
Flooding themselves
I'm seeing both sides on a mission
Who am I, who am I?
But a slave to the lies
It's my dangerous mind
Under the skin of my darkest white
Who are you, who are you?
But a slave to the news
There's a side to choose
See a disguise with no will to lose
White clouds in the sky
Yet the world around me makes them cry
Black clouds by the moon
There's a righteous world inside of you
There's a righteous world inside of you
There's a righteous world inside of you
There's a righteous world inside of you
