Broken

You don't have to look too hard To see the future in that old woman's eyes Her son's broken And his son's close behind Disappointment's on her face She's been walking through a reoccuring dream Races, hatred, this is what it means And every time she witnesses the violence in the streets She reaches for the cross bows her head and then she pleads Let the spell be broken Break its hold from our minds Let it pass from our lives Let the spell be broken Every heart beats the same So how much longer will it take? Neighbourhoods are burnin' down And when they're gone There's still a line in the dust Your side, my side Ain't things bad enough 'Cause everyone's a victim of the violence in the street And every mother knows about the sorrow that it breeds So let the spell be broken Break its hold from our minds Let it pass from our lives Let the spell be broken Every heart beats the same So how much longer will it take Till it's over yeah Let the spell be broken Let the spell be broken 'Cause everyone's a victim of the violence in the street And every mother knows about the sorrow that it breeds So let the spell be broken Break its hold from our minds Let it pass from our lives Let the spell be broken Every heart beats the same So how much longer will it take?
