Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEF GHIJKF LMNOPF QRSTUF

Wasn t it painful to be hunted like gameA
To be chained like convictsB
To be whipped like oxen on a yokeC
To be polished like race horsesD
To be fed like guard dogsE
How could we just forgetF
-
Didn t we pay for our own enslavementG
Didn t we salute our captors build theirH
Empires fight their warsI
Didn t we protect them raise their offspring sJ
Feed them with our own sweat and toilK
How could we just forgetF
-
How do we see the light behind the shadowsL
How do we soothe broken heartsM
How do we sing the new songsN
How do we see a better dayO
How do we hide these gaping scarsP
How could we just forgetF
-
Why do we justify a world that forgetsQ
Why should we still believeR
Why do we pretend we have crossed the bridgeS
Why do we sit back and just lookT
Why do we still ask just questionsU
How could we just forgetF
