[Chorus]
Is it the state of the times?
We never stop to ask why
What’s wrong, what’s right?
What’s dark, what’s light?
Does it matter if it’s black or white?
Is it a state of the mind
Or is the heart what’s blind?
Can you see past all the people pleasing?
Fighting for no reason
We just villainize the other side
I’m wanting more than
“Hello, Goodbye”
“Hello, Goodbye”
More than
“Hello, Goodbye”
“Hello, Goodbye”

[Verse]
We celebrate the come up
We celebrate the commas
We make it all about us
I’m breaking all of your trust
They wanna blame Obama
They wanna blame it on Trump
Aside from all the drama
Would you even make the cut?
I mean if they put the microscope on your life
Would your petri dish be pro life?
I mean don’t lie
When you see that beggar on the streets
Pantomine
Dig for something, playing nice
But you’re just playing show time
You don’t really care to give except a piece of your mind
Man, he needs to stop being lazy and work hard

[Chorus]
Is it the state of the times?
We never stop to ask why
What’s wrong, what’s right?
What’s dark, what’s light?
Does it matter if it’s black or white?
Is it a state of the mind
Or is the heart what’s blind?
Can you see past all the people pleasing?
Fighting for no reason
We just villainize the other side

[Verse]
I was living in a silo, I know
Higher than the Eiffel
Echo chamber stayed idle
We’re in denial
We keep it bible
Seek revival
House of idols
We’ll clean it up
But don’t you ever think to
Touch my rifle
I donate to charity, the Lord’s work is vital
Checks I wrote those as long as FIFO is tight tho
Claim you’re multicultural
But all I see is tribal
Say that I belong
But why your body language frightful
I have two black friends I can’t be racist

[Chorus]
Is it the state of the times?
We never stop to ask why
What’s wrong, what’s right?
What’s dark, what’s light?
Does it matter if it’s black or white?
Is it a state of the mind
Or is the heart what’s blind?
Can you see past all the people pleasing?
Fighting for no reason
We just villainize the other side

[Verse]
Some say it’s left or right but we just wanna move it forward
This the land of the free only for those who can afford it
Open up the possibilities to claim what is yours
Colonizer state of mind is planted deep to the core (woah)
We cannot afford another generation lost
Can you reassure me that you’ll break the paradox
The church once prayed in power now they preying like the ops
I don’t need a clever talk I need to hear the words of God!

Hey preacher man quit your politicking
We’re fighting for the Kingdom
The war’s not of flesh and blood
We rage against the systems
Plain to see supremacy has handed out advantage
Head start for the hedge fund
We white-washed all the damage
And you’re still here thinking why there’s such a massive exodus
If I hear another boomer try to blame the internet one more time I might blow up on ‘em
Passing down our prejudice and practices to our kids
Man, I used to actually love Christmas
‘til consumerism owned it
I just want my people free
People dying on the streets
People laughing at the church
But baby I still believe
All these clowns in the court
But Adonai still the King
Bread of life has set the table
When we dine it’s a feast
Used to be afraid of what it meant to follow Christ
Now I’m scared to waste away my life for paradise
The fear of God is like the dawn of growing wise
To see the Son rise with both eyes
It’s your time

[Chorus]
Is it the state of the times?
We never stop to ask why
What’s wrong, what’s right?
What’s dark, what’s light?
Does it matter if it’s black or white?
Is it a state of the mind
Or is the heart what’s blind?
Can you see past all the people pleasing?
Fighting for no reason
We just villainize the other side
I’m wanting more than
“Hello, Goodbye”
“Hello, Goodbye”
More than
“Hello, Goodbye”
“Hello, Goodbye”
