Schism

Don't look at me as a white man I'm just a man Don't look at me as a black man I'm just a man It takes a man to deal with ignorance Prove that you can Like having to climb a barbwire fence Can ya tell me how it feels to be hated? Can ya tell me how it feels to be loved? Can you show me what it means to be respected? Or is the answer none of the above? It's so easy to hate your brother It should be hard It's so easy to hate your friends Why ain't it hard? Love and hate come in the dock together Play your card Love or hate can rule your life forever Can ya tell me how it feels to be hated? Can ya tell me how it feels to be loved? Can you show me what it means to be respected? Or is the answer none of the above? Hating, fighting, lying, and I can't take... Bitching, screwing, crying, and I just hate... Taking, cheating, spying, and I can't take... Hating, fighting, dissing, fighting, fighting Fighting... And I can't take no... Schism!! Schism, sk, sk, sk, schism A house divided can't stand Prejudice is unnatural thought When we were kids It's not inherited it's taught When we were kids If we were blind and had no choice Difference hid Would we hate each other by the tone of our voice? Can ya tell me how it feels to be hated? Can ya tell me how it feels to be loved? Can you show me what it means to be respected? Or is the answer none of the above? Hating, fighting, lying, and I can't take... Bitching, screwing, crying, and I just hate... Taking, cheating, spying, and I can't take... Hating, fighting, dissing, fighting, fighting Fighting... And I can't take no... Schism!!
