It's another night in hell, another [F] child [C] won't live to tell.
Can you imagine what it's like to starve to [F] death?
[C] _ _
[F] And as [C] we sit free and well, another [F] soldier [C] has to yell,
Tell [F] my [C] wife and children I love [F] them in his [C] last breath.
Come [F] on now, [C] _ Amen, [F] _ [C] Amen, _ [F] _ [C] Amen, _ [F] _ [C] Amen.
_ Perpetual offenders, [F] scumbag [C] lawyers with agendas,
I tell you sometimes people, I don't know what's worse. _
_ Natural disasters, all [F] these wolves [C] in sheep-clothed pastures.
Now God damn it, I'm scared to send [F] my [C] children to church.
[F] And how can [C] we seek salvation when [F] our [C] nation's race relations
got [F] me [C] feeling guilty of [F] being white?
[C] _ _
[F] But [C] faith in human nature, [F] I'm [C] creator and I'm savior,
[F] I'm no [C] saint but I believe in what [F] is right.
[C] _
Come on [F] now, [C] Amen, _ _ Amen, I [F] said [C] Amen, _ _ Amen.
[F] Stop [C] pointing fingers and take some [F] blame,
[C] hold your future away from the [F] flame,
[C] open up your mind, it's [F] hard to [C] live.
Stop [F] short [C]-changing your neighbors,
living [F] off [C] handouts and favors, maybe.
[F] [C] Give a little bit more than [F] you got [C] to give, got to give.
[F] _ [C] Simplify, testify, [F] [C] identify, rectify, [F] identify [C] it high.
Stop being [F] so [C] upright. _
It's only human nature [F] and [C] I am not a stranger,
[F] so [C] baby won't you stay with me [F] tonight?
[C] _ _
_ [Am] [A] And when it costs away that [D] blanket sign, I'm better now.
[C] I need someone, oh, to be someone. _
[Am] It's a second down and holy night, [A] I hold the dawn in front.
Let [G] them _ say what you _ want to _ say. _ _ _
[F] _ [C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ [C] _ _

[G] It's a matter of salvation [F] from the patience up above,
[G] so don't give up so damn easy [F] on the one you love.
The one you love.
_ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ Somewhere you got a brother, sister, friend, grandmother,
niece or nephew just dying to be with you.
_ [Gm] You know there's [F] someone [C] out there who unconditionally,
_ religiously loves you, so just hold on,
cause you know it's true.
And if you can take the pain, then you can withstand anything,
and one day stand hand in hand with the truth.
