lyrics

Why is it a crime to be free
In a world run by thieves?
Rules broken simply by being made
Lives taken by the cowards and the afraid

Why must we suffer for those who can’t live?
Born into power with the right shoes on their feet
Why must we suffer for those who can’t fight?
Too fat to run but hidden in the night

(And when they knew they were naked
They covered their shame
Banished from Eden
But free with no gain) x5

We’re being strangled by our brothers’ hands
Castrated by our peers
Being punished for the crime of our first breath

We cannot pretend to be truly free
When we are imprisoned by accidental power
The unfair distribution we cannot control

(Simply to understand
Was the right they had won
The cost was their freedom
There was no going home) x5

[Cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever:
Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the Garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life] – Genesis 3:17-24, KJV

And when they knew they were naked
They covered their shame
Banished from Eden
But free with no gain

Simply to understand
Was the right they had won
The cost was their freedom
There was no going home
