Abraham Lincoln was a racist who said
"U cannot escape from history"
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight -

Just like every snowflake in an avalanche...
Like the snow comin' down the mountain
That landed on Wounded Knee
Nobody wants 2 take the weight -
The responsibility
