Translation
Bilingual
Challenged by some kind of new world order
Trying to do right for our sons and our daughters
Political opinion's become artillery
Open your eyes and tell me; do you like what you see?
Stepping on the poor to climb up that ladder
Blind eye turned to the lives left shattered
Mercy, mercy are we coming undone?
There's gotta be a better world for everyone
I've got them battleground blues
How'd it get this far to go to war with ourselves
Battleground blues, I think I'm done, done spilling blood
Winters grow colder, summers hotter
Bitter is the soil that's rotting our hunger
I can't seem to tell the forest for the trees
And mother nature's driving us to our knees
Take a good hard look at how we define one another
Politics, religion, background, and color
Searching for the truth in a big web of lies
Made to connect us but it only divides
And now we've got hose battleground blues
How'd we get this far to be at war with ourselves
Tell me ain't we done? Ain't we done spilling blood?
