Broken Songtext
von Soulsister

You don′t have to look too hard
To see the future in that old woman's eyes
Her son′s broken and his son's close behind
Oh yeah
Disappointment's on her face
She′s been walking through a reoccurring dream
Racist hatred, this is what it means
And every time she witnesses the violence in the streets
She reaches for the cross, bows her head and then she pleads

Let the spell be broken
Break its hold on our minds
Let it pass from our lives
Let the spell be broken
Every heart beats the same
So how much longer will it take?


Neighborhoods are burning down
And when they′re gone there's still a line in the dirt
Your side, my side, ain′t things bad enough?
Oh yeah
'Cause everyone′s a victim of the violence in the streets
And every mother knows about the sorrow that it breeds

So let the spell be broken
Break its hold on our minds
Let it pass from our lives
Let the spell be broken
Every heart beats the same
So how much longer will it take

'Til it′s over, over, yeah

Let the spell be broken
Let the spell be broken
'Cause everyone's a victim of the violence in the streets
And every mother knows about the sorrow that it breeds
So let the spell be broken
Break its hold on our minds
Let it pass from our lives
Let the spell be broken
Every heart beats the same
So how much longer will it take?


Let the spell be broken
Break its hold on our minds
Let it pass from our lives
Let the spell be broken
Every heart beats the same

So tell me what′s it gonna take?
Let the spell be broken
