reaper's scythe - the thought lyrics

Loading...

[refrain]
our difference ain’t political, it’s of our virtues
our perceptions of the world that we believe are true
we were raised differently, our lenses different hues
you’re like bluegr-ss and i’m just the blues

whether atheist or christian, pro-choice or life
our similarities far outweigh the need for strife
we’re all the same species, why is hatred so rife?
learn to love one another before the reaper’s scythe

[verse 1]
i believe that human beings should live in peace together
forsake race and creed to reach our needs, and weather
the storm of society, the norm is impropriety
and somehow, also piety to the abrahamic deity

a human law of equality and empathy
if we ever wish to unite ivory and ebony
the legacy that kennedy left to be the recipe
has been readily eradicated, now it’s merely hegemony

many preach this ideal of post-colonialism
hate to be the one to say it, but it’s parochialism
instant lil’ romeo-ism, our children raised wrong
i’m talkin’ morally corrupt, not of beer-bongs

a functionally alcoholic, sociopathic country
stop tellin’ young men it’s g-y to let their love free
don’t put the president in a vice, like hubey humphrey
i just wanna fix our problems, ain’t that some dream?

[refrain]
our difference ain’t political, it’s of our virtues
our perceptions of the world that we believe are true
we were raised differently, our lenses different hues
you’re like bluegr-ss and i’m just the blues

whether atheist or christian, pro-choice or life
our similarities far outweigh the need for strife
we’re all the same species, why is hatred so rife?
learn to love one another before the reaper’s scythe

[verse 2]
i hated seein’ homeless on the street as a child
it made me think of the world as somethin’ filthy and vile
i don’t wanna deal with college, much to mother’s disdain
now i’m realizin’ that the world’s just shallow and vain

i found a p-ssion, found a talent, why shan’t i pursue?
because the cookie-cutter anti-cannab-tter schools
have been telling me since birth to want a suit and tie
rather than rely on my love and dream to get by?

i’ve been recognizin’ for a while that something’s broken
not just whites hatin’ on blacks and cops hatin’ tokin’
there’s something rotten growing in our bone marrow
sh-t, half the country can’t afford to eat at carrow’s!

did we take an arrow to the knee? did this land lose the t-tle free?
is it not apparent to thee that our rivals are identical to we?
we’ve made sensational the travesties of yesteryear
before the reaper’s scythe
just some food for thought for your ears

[outro]
before the reaper’s scythe…
