[Intro]
[Intro]
4/4|:D :|
D
We were all born human
D
From infinite possibilities to one unique union
D
before we were man or woman
D
Grown in the bodies that we shared in communion
D
Rocked by the beat our our mother’s heart soothing our first sleep
D
We were all born human
D
Before we saw the sight of the sun’s lumens
D
On the second of June I was torn from the womb doomed for the tomb,
D
Before I tasted sweet milk or smelled the spring flowers that were blooming
D
I was born human
D
Before I was civilized, socialized, and radicalized
D
Before we were sexualized, racialized, and stratified
D
Before you were demonized brutalized crucified
D
I saw that you were human
D
When I saw you pray for the healing of this world that is in ruin
D
When I heard the stories of your ancestors, the peace and prosperity they were pursuing
D
When I cooked with the flavors curry, coriander, and cumin
D
I knew that you were human (6/8 metric modulation begins)
D
What is this poisonous food that we’re consuming
D
Since when has voting for two men like Dewey or Truman
D
been reason to deny thy brother and make enemies from friends
D
No one truly wins
D
In the end, we all transcend the original sin of men to finally become human again
