Don't Drag Me Down
Lyrics
Children are taught to hate
Parents just couldn't wait
Some are rich and some are poor
Others will just suffer more
Have you ever been ashamed
And felt society try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change
And see them turn around
Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, Turn around
Don't drag me down
Ignorance like a gun in hand
Reach out to the promised land
Your history books are full of lies
Media-blitz gonna dry your eyes
Have you ever been afraid
And felt society try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change see them turn around
Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, Turn around
Don't drag me down
One, Two - FUCK YOU!
Ignorance like a gun in hand
Reach out to the promised land
Your history books are full of lies,
Media -blitz gonna dry your eyes
You're eighteen wanna be a man
Your granddaddy's in the Ku Klux Klan
Taking two steps forward
And four steps back
Gonna go to the White House
And paint it black
Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, turn around
Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, turn around
Don't drag me down
