A Terrible Mistake

Let's play a game that we're not equal I'll be the cat You'll be my prey The rules have no end Eventually the roles will be swapped There's no need to rush I can't breathe A terrible mistake was made We've gained and used so much power in such a short time Let's play a game that we're not equal I'll be rich You'll rely on my grace The rules as we've made them work just fine for me And I hope it works for you too my brother Right here Somebody else is being treated The way I wouldn't like to be treated I I've made I've made a terrible mistake when I excluded myself I I've made I've made a terrible mistake when I turned away my conscience After a while I found myself standing by Stuck in time I want to be a better human of any colour or shade I just need to be engaged Right now I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe A terrible mistake was made We've gained and used so much power in such a short time I I've made I've made a terrible mistake when I excluded myself I I've made I've made a terrible mistake when I turned away my conscience
