Don’t Drag Me Down Lyrics by One Drop

One Drop

2007

Children are taught to hate
Parents just couldn't wait
Some are rich and some are poor
Others will just suffer more
Have you ever been ashamed
And felt society try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change
And see them turn around

Turn around, they try to get me down
Turn around

Ignorance is like a gun in hand
Reach out to the promised land
Your history books are full of lies
Media blitz gonna dry your eyes
Have you ever been afraid
And felt society try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change
And see them turn around

Turn around, they try to keep mе down
Turn around

Ignorance like a gun in hand
Reach out to thе promised land
Your history books are full of lies
Media blitz wanna dry your eyes
You're eighteen, wanna be a man
Your granddaddy's in the Klu Klux Klan
Taking two steps forward
Taking four steps back
Wanna go and paint
The white house black

Turn around, they try to keep me down
Turn around
Turn around, they try to keep me down
Turn around
