I think it began back in 1992 - flames and riots
and my innocence was through

the flames got put out but the hatred stayed so
strong

burning up the streets like an urban napalm

white boy white boy - why you gotta act so proud?


black black boy - why you gotta talk so loud?

whit boy white boy - so afraid you buy a gun

black boy black boy - so busy hating everyone

nothing comes free/ nothing comes free

and this town ain't half of what it used to be

nothing comes free/ nothing comes free

do you hear the sound of world burning down?

I don't like fear and I don't like feeling danger


now I'm driving through this ghost town like a
sad lone ranger

amid the ruins of all these urban sights and
sounds

seeing those places sometimes it still brings me
down

white boy white boy - you're so busy building
fences

black boy black boy - when you gonna come to your
senses

white boy white boy - anger shouldn't be your new
song

black boy black boy - if you hate because of
color, you've got it all wrong

that's when I said well, nothing comes free

chorus
