[Verse 1]
As I remember
It was 400 years or more
Since you came to crucify
And they were taken far away from home
There were promises of paradise
But if they had been told that they
That they would be sold this way
To satisfy the souls of chosen men
See, I had to look carefully
At the shame of my ancestry
To redefine the storyline again
[Chorus]
Hey, if I was taken for a day
And shown another way
Now every child can learn a different thing
See, I tried a million times
But I had to change my mind, oh
Sadness was the best thing I could bring
On the inside he was dead
And this is what he said
As he took away the blue above the clouds, oh
"Superiority was clearly meant to be
So destiny will manifest in time"
