To The Rhythm 歌詞

Think about it

 

I don't understand what's goin' on

 

I'm trying to figure out the world around me

 

It seems we make the same mistakes over again

 

An I can't understand why

 

Tell me about it

 

Why do we walk in the footsteps of our ancestors

In a monotonous fashion

 

Recreating the same failures and crimes of passion

 

Help me understand our fascination with bloodshed and violence

 

What happened to the notion of the evil days being behind us

Are we too lost to find salvation or could it be

We don't want salvation to find us

Are we content with the changes that bind us

 

We go on and on

 

To the rhythm

On and on

 

To the rhythm

We go on and on

 

To the rhythm

On and on

 

There's something else on my mind

 

Ain't it strange when we make change

We end up with dollars and no sense

Progress is a false pretense

 

From and Cain & Abel to any ghetto

Tiannemen Square to Soweto apartheid to Jim Crowe

 

Are these problems incurable

 

We can charge stars invisible to the eye

But we can't find the solution for oppression or learn

If we can't live together we're all gonna die

 

Hatred racism war killing for sport

 

Got to change the way we look at each other

Abuse R**e murder neglecting the poor

Look at the pain we're going through

 

Selling our souls just to make a profit

Respect yourselves my sisters and brothers

 

Using addictions to deal with our problems

It's up to you

When we gonna stop it

 

Generations come and generations go

 

Time is the rhythm to which we all flow

 

Help me to realize cause I don't understand

 

Why does every generation have to do

The same thing again and again

 

We're not destined to lose it's about the paths we choose

 

How long before we get it

The value of which you get is measured in how much you're

Willing to sacrifice

 

Life's too short we can't waste a minute

So how much is it worth to you to save your life

And the lives of your children

How much must we go through

We have to change the words to the song before

 

We can truly enjoy the rhythm

 

Life beats

360 degrees in a cycle to the rhythm

 

Time beats

 

Repeating things in a circular fashion to the rhythm

Hearts beat

 

To the rhythm

Love beats

 

To the rhythm

What are we gonna do about it

 

What are we gonna do about it

 

To the rhythm

 

Time we got ourselves together

 

To the rhythm

Cause we can't let hate beat to the rhythm

 

To the rhythm

Can't let lies beat

To the rhythm

 

To the rhythm

 

Bloodshed no no

 

To the rhythm

 

There's nothing new under the sun

 

Hold on to the good

 

To the rhythm

 

We're doin' the same things over and over and over

 

Hold on to the good

'And over and over'

 

Stop the madness

 

 

'And over and over again
