Nothing makes me more angry, not to tell *furious*, than racism. Segregation, apartheid, you name it and I'll catch fire. The story about Noah and his Ark is maybe a myth, but it is exactly what I feel like. Facing destruction, we're all the same. I hope. This very humble song with few lines and simple chords I wrote down in half an hour or something. After watching some casuals in action. I was about joining the fight, but who was the fiend?
the animals walked in two by two
yes the animals walked in two by two
preparing for the flood • standing equal to their God
and the animals walked in two by two
but I'm walking down that long black road
walking down that long black road
hiding for the crowd with my backhead steep down bowed
as I'm walking down that long black road
the animals walked in two by two
yes the animals walked in two by two
in the vapor of the death they were sharing food and breath
and the animals walked in two by two
but I'm walking down that long black road
walking down that long black road
hiding for the crowd with my backhead steep down bowed
as I'm walking down that long black road
the animals walked in two by two
yes the animals walked in two by two
comes the time it will return
and the human race will learn
to be walking gently two by two
till then I'm walking down that long black road
walking down that long black road
hiding from the crowd but still crying out loud
why walking down that long black road?
