Milestone - Five Iron Frenzy

Milestone - Five Iron Frenzy
Lets go
If I had a nickel for every single time
I've tried to classify the populace around me with a word
Or a catchy phrase I could quit my job for good
And play Nintendo until my fingers ached
Am I an idiot too lazy to think twice
I point the finger but I can't take my own advice
I put a name on something and ever since
I've made an art of building my counterfeit intelligence
Seemingly to me
I am straightening a world of cluttered thoughts
And a debris inside my head
But I think instead of prejudiced
And I give people names to make me feel safe
Am I an idiot too lazy to think twice
I point the finger but I can't take my own advice
I put a name on something and ever since
I've made an art of building my counterfeit intelligence
How does it feel what does it take to make me understand
If I could only walk a mile
In the shoes of another man
If I could look out through his eyes
And know what it means to bleed
The same red blood that I do
What is economic status and tell me what is race
Who decides to classified taxonomy of grace
If one man gets less that another is it true
That he is all that different
That he is less than you
