The Cry of a Nation Lyrics

"With the best of intentions" you said
On your very beginning
Sad is now seeing a capable man
Wasted by pride, misled by conceit
Seeing him practicing worldly tricks
While the world asks for meaning
Seeing him grow just in arrogance
While empathy's what's required of him
Smile, (just) a pose of wisdom
Wrong(ly) thinking you're the man
Preach, tricking us to trust you
Boldly candidate again, lie again.

(But You're)
DEAF TO THE FEW, DEAF TO THE AMNY
DEAT TO THE CRY OF A NATION
BLIND TO THE PAST
AND WILLINGLY BLIND TO THE NEW
NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF YOUR GENERATION

Shaking hands to the even younger
To the innocent ones looking for
A leader who'll guide them
A testi man
A light in the night of this jungle world
Striving just for support of yourself
Tripping the neighbour and fucking the next
So you're treading on life itself
On the head of your son and your friend
Smile, just a pose of wisdom
Wrong(ly) thinking you're the man
Preach, tricking us to trust you
Boldly candidate again, lie again.

WE CONDEMN YOU TO DEATH
