Trouble with the world is we're too busy to think about it, all right
  Why is there a rebel flag hanging from the state house walls?
  Tired of hearin' this shit about heritage not hate
  Time to make the world a better place
  Why must we hate one another?
  Well no matter what we gotta live together
  Just that you don't look like me, tell me what do you see
  When we pass on the street what do you wanna see
  P.E.'s coming is all I gotta say
  Wanna turn and run away
  They're just telling you how they see it
  Right or wrong they don't care, you wish that they would quit
  [chorus:]
  Drowning in a sea of tears
  Hatred trying to hide your fears
  Living only for yourself
  Hating everybody else
  Cause they don't look like you
  Nanci singing it's a hard life wherever you go
  About some fat racist living in Chicago
  Trying to teach his kids to hate everyone
  Well tell me why is that something you wanna teach your son?
  Why must we hate one another?
  When the people in the church, they tell me you're my brother
  You don't walk like me, ... you don't talk like me, saying
  Go back to Africa, I just don't understand
  [chorus]
  I'm trying to be someone that he could look up to, but
  When I walk down the street, tell me what do you see
  I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man
  No I'm not like you
  Why do you hate me so
  I don't know, I don't know, I don't know
  Hating everybody else cause they don't look like you
