Don´t Drag Me Down lyrics

Children are taught to hate,
parents just couldn't wait.
Some are rich and some are poor,
others will just suffer more!
Have you ever been ashamed and felt society
try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change
and see them turn around.

Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, Turn around
Don't drag me down

Ignorance like a gun in hand,
reach out to the promised land!
Your history books are full of lies,
media-blitz gonna dry your eyes.
Have you ever been afraid and felt society
try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change
and see them turn around.

Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, Turn around
Don't drag me down

Ignorance like a gun in hand,
reach out to the promised land!
Your history books are full of lies,
media -blitz gonna dry your eyes.
You're eighteen wanna be a man,
Your granddaddy's in the Ku Klux Klan
Taking two steps forward
and four steps back -
Gonna go to the White House
and paint it black!

Turn around, they'll try to keep you down
Turn around, Turn around
Don't drag me down
