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, rape, 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
