The world is turning backwards
And time stands worse than still
The ignorance is stifling
And trying to break my will
Mama would just sit and cry
At all the ground we've lost
A mockery of those who fought
And paid that heavy cost
But we can't let the dream just die
And let those bastards win
The Devil's in the details
That documents their sins
See, ignorance dies slowly
And rears its ugly head
So, don't give up the struggle
Until we know it's dead
I know I won't live long enough
To see that precious sight
Where people all stand equal
And all walk in the light
Come march right here beside me
For things worth fighting for
So, we can leave behind a world
That's worth a little more
