All comes 'round again

lyrics

All Comes Round Again
When I was a kid, I learned my people hid and those that did survive barely got out alive. I could not understand why so few lent a hand, and thank god some were brave and fought against the wave. I asked my mother, I asked my father, “Why did it happen, and would it happen once again?” They assured me that the world was better. Folks who were enemies for years could now be friends.
We learned in school that long ago, people had strange ideas. They did not know, but thanks to progress and education, we were building far more peaceful, loving nations. And I believed that the wrongs had passed, and I believed that peaceful harmony could last. But that belief has reached an end, cause look around, my friends, it all comes round again.
The crimes of hatred, not just in pages of old history books, they’re putting kids in cages!
They use the same words to justify. They look right at the TV cameras as they lie, and we all know how bad it gets. I don’t think anyone just moves on and forgets. It’s clear that evil never did end. It just waited til it all comes round again.
And folks are frightened, and folks are scared, and we must look upon the way past heroes dared to go on marches, to lead the fight, who knew the difference between what was wrong and right. Will the darkness give way to light if we stand together and we join the fight? It’s all we’ve got, and it worked back then, and we need it cause it all comes round again.
