Lyrics
Come and open your eyes,
Come and open wide,
‘Turn your eyes from the outside in,
You gotta take another look inside.
I know you’re young and eager,
You’re young and angry,
And you see a better world in view,
But you gotta stop hatin’ without thinkin’
Or you’re gonna be guilty too.

Take a look in your head,
Tell me what you see,
Is it filled with another man’s thoughts?
Who told you that you shouldn’t like me?
‘Cause you can like me or hate me
However you’re inclined,
But hate without a reason messes up your mind.
You better open your eyes,
Or you’re gonna leave your mind behind.

Do you know what you hate?
Does it wear a name?
Do you separate feelin’ and fact?
Or do they all jumble up the same?
Well, you gotta look for more than sandals
Or a copy of a book of protest songs,
So take a second look and take a deep one,
Or you’ll lose the little ground you’ve gained.
