Nadir Lyrics

How can we just look at this

Do we degrade them

Think of their lives as if

They're less important

Then, left in the water

We can watch them sink

Have we taught ourselves to think

That we're divided

In fairness where the line is

They're on the outside

And left in the blindside

We don't let them in

Our downfall

Has begun

We'll touch nadir

There's no way out of here

Ignorance is bliss

When facing injustice

How are we able to sleep

When children are caged and

Must be detained or leave

Say this is our border

And we need our order

To enjoy The American Dream

Are we blinded, are we numb

Are we dead to what we've done

Generations build their lives

On the graves of their loved ones

Is it blood or is it tears

Running down their dusty cheeks

Or might it be our decency

And what's left of humanity

Our downfall

Has begun

We'll touch nadir

There's no way out of here

Ignorance is bliss

When facing injustice

Our downfall

Has begun

We'll touch nadir

There's no way out of here

Ignorance is bliss

When facing injustice

It's such a privilege to say

We were unaware

And walk away

See the blood on every street

Then wash our feet and let it be

We'll touch nadir
