The Great Human Race,
We blacken the sky,
We burn and we kill,
And we swim and we fly,
And there's no escape,
From the freedom we bring,
You'll love all the labor,
The shanties we sing,

The people above us
Don't think we're worth dirt;
And he people below us -
Who cares if they hurt?
You've either got money,
Or no life at all,
And no glass of water's
A glass that's not tall.

The Great Human Race,
We torture the guy
Who's trying to live,
Or who's trying to die,
We leave good men bleeding,
Bad men to the throne,
And as dying men look on,
We wither alone.

The Great human race,
Are you proud of yourselves?
You take all the credit
And blame all the elves.
You lie long and prosper,
You love the sight of the sea,
As you poison and kill it.

Is that really in me?
I can't even tell if I want to be part of the Great Human Race anymore. I'm fed up of the way we do things, from the fatcats at the top of the chain that live guiltless, flawless lives, to the education we get just so we can be checked that we know what we're told that we have to.
I just don't know what I want to be a part of anymore.
