INSOMNIA By Tom Jensen
It’s time to write another song
About the world and where it’s all gone wrong
But awe man….That’s gonna take soo long
To sum it up: if you’re ignorant then you’re right
It’s the best lesson you can learn from the whites
Those with power never wanna give it back
Is the history lesson you learn if you’re black
It’s not where you end up
But how far you had to go to get there
If you were born with a senate seat
Don’t ever complain your life’s not fair
I wake up… remove the covers from my face
Then I do…what I can for the human race
Fight the urge…to give in when I’m overwhelmed
Save the world…mostly by working on myself
I’m close to becoming the man I was born to be
Not another drone, wage slave worked to death
But someone who can say they tried to break free
Every night I stayed awake
Trying to find a cure for the human race
Thus I suffered from insomnia
So finally I had to give it a break
It was the best thing I ever did
Trust me I’m telling ya
It’s time to write another song
