letra de dichotomy - fred nagel

our obsession with sorting the world into little labelled boxes leaves us with fundamental limitations, as the world does not work in absolutes. black and white do not exist but rather infinite shades of grey. and as such, nothing is ever as simple and clear-cut as it might initially seem

a sea of faces staring up
nervous in their calm
questioning the answer as a
twisting of the arm
a circus in the third world
trying to survive
prosperity has been foretold
and therefore we will strive

fees must fall and with it all the rest
stand togethеr in this unifying protest
join together for thе future of us all
chants now echo in the streets and the soul

oh, the hope we saw, as we rose above our fears
we witnessed the birthing of the nation
we’ve been dreaming of for all these years

rubber bullets and pepper gas are flying everywhere
rocks like bombs descending from the air
dust is rising, staining zuma’s hideaway uphill
lungs and eyes are burning, in the night you still hear sirens wailing
victory to the youth that is rising, in power to behold
a triumph resounds in the tale of the ones whose story must be told

a sea of voices rising up
joining as a whole
questions answered finally
rejoicing as one soul
after twenty-two long years
we have overcome
standing smiling ear to ear
“finally our work is done!”
”but you see, we’ve only just begun”

now you think it’s the end of the fighting
we’ve barely just begun
your privileged ears are unable to hear the cries of an african son

brothers turn on each other, our victory short-lived
trapped again in the curse we had to lift
fingers pick the scabs upon a scar that had to heal
hands now tired of holding tight
but not sure what to feel

join us! our force is stronger
united! we believe in a union
but a victory can never be as sweet as to see your enemy fail
join us! for they thirst for nothing but power
they are driven by nothing but a selfish greed
now in humility we ask, a small donation please

join us! our enemy’s right here before us
there’s no motion without the proper leaders to show us the way
the vc will surely pay

choose your side in this famous battle
where none of the sides are right
we’re making history, but we no longer see the reason why we fight

so many voices crying out, so little progress to show

we will have to be happy in adversity
if we can’t learn to care a little less
it is clear to see, we’ll never have equality
if we can’t learn to love a little more
at least more than we love ourselves

oh, you know it’s so
don’t be surprised
we need to acknowledge that the only way to freedom is through mutual compromise
