Hootie & The Blowfish - Drowning Lyrics
Trouble with the world is were too busy to think about it, all rightWhy is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls?Tired of hearin this shit about heritage not hateTime to make the world a better placeWhy must we hate one another?Well no matter what we gotta live togetherJust that you dont look like me, tell me what do you seeWhen we pass on the street what do you wanna seeP.e.s coming is all I gotta sayWanna turn and run awayTheyre just telling you how they see itRight or wrong they dont care, you wish that they would quitChorus:Drowning in a sea of tearsHatred trying to hide your fearsLiving only for yourselfHating everybody elseCause they dont look like youNanci singing its a hard life wherever you goAbout some fat racist living in chicagoTrying to teach his kids to hate everyoneWell tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son?Why must we hate one another?When the people in the church, they tell me youre my brotherYou dont walk like me, ... you dont talk like me, sayingGo back to africa, I just dont understand(chorus)Im trying to be someone that he could look up to, butWhen I walk down the street, tell me what do you seeIm a man, Im a man, Im a manNo Im not like youWhy do you hate me soI dont know, I dont know, I dont knowHating everybody else cause they dont look like you
