Don't blame the doctor for giving me those pills

Don't blame my mother for holding my hand up the hill

Don't blame my childhood friends for speaking their minds

I'll take it all yeah I'll take it all I will

If I was to fight would you fight against me

If I was to run would run with me

If I was to die would you bury me deep

Saying world please

And if I was to scream would you hear what I said

If I was to drown would you hold my hand

Underneath the memories of what I meant

And not what I did

I built a house so tall and I burned it down

I was looking for culture to find what was already found

But don't blame america blame it on me

I'm worried that the sins of the father will trickle down

If I was to fight would you fight against me

If I was to run would run with me

If I was to die would you bury me deep

Saying world please

And if I was to scream would you hear what I said

If I was to drown would you hold my hand

Underneath the memories of what I meant

And not what I did

So don't blame the money for telling me those lies

Don't say my lord was up there being unkind

Cause if justice is a trick you know we all could hide

I'll take it all yeah I'll take it all I will

If I was to fight would you fight against me

If I was to run would run with me

If I was to die would you bury me deep

Saying world please

And if I was to scream would you hear what I said

If I was to drown would you hold my hand

Underneath the memories of what I meant

And not what I did
