kirsten childs - brave new world lyrics

Loading...

young and fancy free
interacialy
hand in hand we band in california

it’s a brave new world
you know that times
they are changing
i know that’s what some white boy’s been singing
not quite the same tune
that the white boys were singing
while black men were swinging
old jim crow is an evil foe
still the devil you know
at least you know him

those days are through
there’s a brave new world point of view
i get the trust
but i just don’t trust the aim is true
it’s way too overdue
(overdue, overdue, overdue)

the bitter tears
of bitter years
of “white makes right”
won’t fade overnight

i’m terrified!
that you’re standing by his side
i pray each day
you’ll see at last
the die is cast
and you did not cast it
and you won’t get past it
cause old jim crow
is still the status quo
weather is legally so
or is de facto
it’s a fact

mommy, don’t be afraid
racial hate is still intact
my decision’s made
so i’ll be right here
to break the fall when you get hurled
i won’t get hurled
out of that brave new world
