We Were Right

I don't mean to preach
 I'm going to preach to you
 You all don't understand
 The way i want you too
 The last train has passed you by
 The last plane already flied
 Wouldn't have mattered if the pilot tried
 To slow down for you
 We were right all along
 When they need ratings they use weapons
 And it's been done to us before
 We need ratings we need weapons
 Now that we know what were here for
 There are millions more like me
 But we dont' all look like
 We don't have the same mother
 We don't have the same blood type
 I've got the word
 I've got the power
 We can have this industry
 We can build a whole new ladder
 Let's put all our names in stone
 So we forget our own
 Reality is hardwired
 Everyman a king and every king a liar
