Believe In The Great White Race

Believe in the Great white race is, What they tell me

I told them I'd believe anyting if they'd turn loose.

If they turn me loose from this ship

Upon and unsteady sea, where all you hear are the waves 

The waves that should being peace to your mind, but they never brought peace to mind.

So I thought have I forgotten peace or has peace forgotten me?

I can smell the salty sea and the fresh crisp air, from the tiny room they put me in.

I came out of that tiny room once a day, and there would be sunlight the bright beautiful sun,

Gave me a sense of hope and freedom.

The sunlight was everything wonerful in life, but the feeling was only for a moment and that moment was all I needed.
