Humankind - Judie Tzuke
How can I let my eyes fall
Become blind to what I've seen
And pretend that it's okay to say
Well the world's alright with me
When the innocent suffer our greed
I can't silence the sound of their cries
When we kill for a sport faith
Oil or a fashion
We're at peace letting sleeping dogs lie
There's nowhere to hide
When it hits me from all sides
No excuse for not understanding
I am humankind
I can make changes
Well I watch as the waters they rise
And the wind blows cold at my door
Though I feel myself turning away
I can't stop looking anymore
It's too easy to shut out the noise
Not to read the words written in blood
And the way that we cover our sins is to sail
A boat over the floods
There's nowhere to hide
When it hits me from all sides
No excuse for not understanding
I am humankind
I can make changes
I can start listening
I can make changes
There's nowhere to hide
When it hits me from all sides
No excuse for not understanding
I am humankind
There's nowhere to hide
When it hits me from all sides
No excuse for not understanding
I am humankind
I can make changes
I can start listening
I can make changes
I am humankind
I am humankind
