N.O.P.

V1:
I don’t understand, why my face looks like this?>
Why better looking people bring down my confidence?>
Why are there people who think, they’re better than others?>
Why are there little children, born without a mother?>
Why does prejudice exist, in this world?>
Against race and sex, between a boy and girl?>
When will we be equal, in this system?>
Of multiple race, sex, speech and religion?>

H:
Nobody knows,
Why the world’s this way>
And I wanna know,
Will it ever change?>
Between now and beyond,
A new generation>
Of equality,
In this population>
(‘Cause no one’s perfect)

V2:
Why do people judge others, by the way they dress?>
Or the way they walk or talk, and never show respect?>
I wish there was some way, that we can stop judging others>
And live like a family, of sisters and brothers>
With no differences, by the color of your skin>
‘Cause we all bleed the same, and we all have sinned>
We all have beliefs, which contradict with some>
Why can’t some compromise, without a gun?>

H:
Nobody knows,
Why the world’s this way>
And I wanna know,
Will it ever change?>
Between now and beyond,
A new generation>
Of equality,
In this population>
(‘Cause no one’s perfect)

what's up with the world today?
with war and kaos, increasing this way
I'm sick of the news, telling me the same
thing I heard before, that hasn't changed
it's too predictable, we all assume
who the victims are, and accuse
the innocent ones, who don't deserve
the punishment of someone else, in this curse
