People with no history
Are destined to spin and repeat
Nobody sees, nobody sees
Their own shadow
How many ways can we kill ourselves?
Plastic, oil, forever chemicals
Everyone breathe, everyone breathe
Spit, don't swallow

Because our world
Isn't your world
You just stole the world
Just been free

Our forefathers plundered freely
Turned freedom into slavery
Had a set of beliefs to put their minds at ease
One that forgives and blessed their excesses

Now we're owned by our relatives greed
Fake democracies come cheap
Profit today from our children's tomorrow
Get rich quick in El Dorado

Our world
Isn't your world
You just stole the world
Just been free
Our world
Isn't your world
We don't own the world
She came for free

Why obsess with nationality?
We're all mutts, we are family
We have a dream, we have a dream
Share, don't spoil
Because our world
Isn't your world
Nobody sees, nobody sees
Their own shadow
Every part is alive
Every piece intertwined
We're a part of a piece
Of the world
All I seen was definitely
What a soul there is to grow
What a fool, I don't know
But I try

La-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra, la-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra
La-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra, la-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra-ra-ra-ra
La-ra, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra, la-ra
La-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-ra-la
