[01:52.0]in the eyes of the youth there are question marks like freedom.
[01:55.0]Freedom for the mind and soul, we don't see them.
[01:57.0]See them for their worth at all,thats why we lead'em.
[01:59.0]Lead'em to these wars and what is it we feed'em.
[02:02.0]Feed em our impurities and who it is we treat'em.
[02:04.0]Treat'em like the enemy humanity will need'em.
[02:06.0]Need'em like the blood we spill and we're freedom.
[02:09.0]Freedom for the hearts we fill we mislead'em.
