Born Branded lyrics

Jesus called, he won`t be coming for dinner tonight
Democracy cancelled out, some kind of fight
So tell me how am I supposed to eat alone?
When all of my butlers have gone, my nannies have gone

On the morning of my birth
I must have wondered at the Earth
I must have seen the trees like Adam showed them to Eve

But now I am American and white
All I know is anxiety and fright
Now love is something I must search for to find

Jesus called, he won`t be coming for dinner love
Democracy cancelled out for the final time
I`m beggin` brothers and sisters cut your leashes free now
We were born branded, we were born branded, we were born branded
We were born second-handed down

The shephard is in a field of reality
Blames the sheep for lost possibilities
The sheep may be lost but the shephard is just as lost

A shephard is a man afraid of
Losing all the things he made up to
Keep his feet planted high above the field

And I`m talkin` about mother, father, sister, brother
Teacher, preacher, anyone who dares to tell you where to stand
I say the love is in your hands
Just look at the world, don`t try to understand

We were born branded, second-handed down
We were born branded, second-handed down
