School days
I learned your dates and numbers
I learned that you were the winners
That you were civilized, and I
I was your burden
School days
I learned about your victories
The valour and the glory that was yours
And I? The heathen had to hide
'Cause God was on your side
You never told me the thief came in the night
And stole my birthright
You never told me the empire you built then
Was founded on the bodies of my murdered brethren
You taught me to despise me seen through your eyes
But now I clearly see the lies you call
your history
School days
You taught me with your movies
The red man was no man at all
He could not hold his alcohol
The black man likes to sing and dance
But does not have intelligence
School days
You said my sins would be forgiven
If truly I repented, he'd wash my sins away
(Your way) but you have not repented
You are just the same
You never told me that Jesus was a Jew
And still you swear his hair was fair
His eyes were baby blue
You taught me to despise me seen through your eyes
But now I clearly see the lies you call
your history
