Lyrics
History is written by the victors
And everything we read has been revised
The real story may read out quite differently
Than the truth that might be realized
History remains a mystery
And has been rewritten over time
History remains a mystery
You gotta read between the lines
Everything we're taught in school
The education we receive
Has all been quite contrived
And shouldn't be believed
History remains a mystery
And has been rewritten over time
History remains a mystery
You gotta read between the lines
History's not written by the bankers
Theirs is the tale of one who falls
The winner takes the truth and then we vote
And we all take for granted what we're told
History remains a mystery
And has been rewritten over time
History remains a mystery
You gotta read between the lines
Everybody have to know them social history
'Cause the world make up from social mystery
Everybody 'pon the planet DNA combine
And the truth me a talk 'cause you will surely find
We get caught in another catastrophe
Don't you read your paper, me say, don't you watch the news?
'Cause on the street and on the tongues of people that you meet
Things are escalating, me say, faster than we speak
World disaster suffer, we all have to pay
As anguish and frustration, me say, turn to disgrace
More denial and more lies, it a the order of the day
Watch the politicians flee so they don't have to pay
Everybody have to know them social history
'Cause the world make up from social mystery
Everybody 'pon the planet DNA combine
And the truth me a talk 'cause you will surely find
Government a peddle and pledge this to you and me
Increase social justice and show us no pity
They give it to the rich and, me say, take it from the poor
Somehow it gonna help you rise above the board
Everybody have to know them social history
'Cause the world make up from social mystery
Everybody 'pon the planet DNA combine
And the truth me a talk 'cause you will surely find
Refugees left in a military exercise
The scale of destruction, me say, can't believe your eyes
Millions a flee from war to find another way
Live inna the new P.R. to live another day
Everybody have to know them social history
'Cause the world make up from social mystery
Everybody 'pon the planet DNA combine
And the truth me a talk 'cause you will surely find
Everybody have to know them social history
'Cause the world make up from social mystery
Everybody 'pon the planet DNA combine
And the truth me a talk 'cause you will surely find
