Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I am but a woman
Come of age, yet so young
Many questions never answered
Walk the line, come undone
As I tread the trodden highway
Trying to make it my way
I can't help but feel something's wrong
[Verse 2]
Oh, and I will never bow down to a Babylon system
When my people suffer, truth kept undercover
Lies supplying them blue colors
Have we not grown enough to see the repeat offending?
In our lifetime, still confronted by inequality, yeah
[Verse 3]
We're crying, crying, but no one hears
Why can't you help ease all our fears?
We're crying, crying, crying out for you
What the hell are we supposed to do?
[Verse 4]
Tell me
Tell me
[Verse 5]
I am but a man
From a time once nowhere
And I heard so many answers
That it's too hard to even tell
But I've learned to look out forward
'Cause we've seen the way the world works
I can't help but believe
We're gonna pull out through
[Verse 6]
I'll never bow down to a Babylon system
No more should my people suffer
For the chase of the big dollar
Have we not grown enough to see the same thing happening?
It's still run by a misguided old ideology
[Verse 7]
We're crying, crying, but no one hears (No one hears, no one hears)
Why can't you help ease all our fears? (All our fears)
We're crying, crying, crying out for you
What the hell are we supposed to do?
(What are we supposed to do? Yeah)
[Verse 8]
Tell me (Tell me)
Tell me (Tell me, yeah)
[Verse 9]
Talkin' 'bout the promises that you'll never keep
You're hard to believe when morality is weak
Deception is powerful, what you portray seems true
Your words got no meaning, 'cause you're never follow through
[Verse 10]
Can you look me in the eyes, with no word of a light
Tell me things are gonna change, everything will be alright
Do you hear me?
Can you hear me?
[Verse 11]
Tell me
Tell me (Would you tell me, tell me?)
Tell me (Tell me)
Tell me (Whoa, whoa)
Tell me (All people)
Tell me (Yeah, yeah)
