lyrics

When Did We Forget?
Lyrics by shamanserpent7

There was a time when we'd take a Brother's hand;
When we'd give all we had to lift the ones who fall.
There was a time when hunger
was met with a meal.
Thirst was given a drink
and no one would ever think
of what it will cost.
We'd all look up at the Heavens
and be greatful for what we were given.

Oh when did we forget?
Why don't we regret
the tears we don't wipe away,
the lost times we didn't say
what was in our hearts?

Oh when did we forget?
Why don't we regret
the lives lost to no reason?

The children no longer play in the streets,
ridden with blood and bullets
for the color of clothing's sake,
for the parents' fear that the next morning
they would not wake.
Teachers fear the schools
where education is their task
for thirsty minds to reach out to
there is a definate lack.

When did we forget?
Why don't we regret
the babies that are dead
from the bullets that were sent
for someone else?
God help us. Will we never wake?

Oh when did we forget?
Why don't we regret
the tears we don't wipe away,
the lost times we didn't say
what was in our hearts?

God help us. Will we never wake?
