Indians by Anthrax Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1987

[Verse 1]
We all see in black and white
When it comes to someone else's fight
No one ever gets involved
Apathy can never solve

[Pre-Chorus]
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can't fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We're dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation

[Verse 2]
Respect is something that you earn
Our Indian brothers' getting burned
Original American
Turned into a second class citizen
[Pre-Chorus]
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can't fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We're dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation

[Chorus]
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians

[Verse 3]
Love the land and fellow man
Peace is what we strive to have
Some folks have none of this
Hatred and prejudice

[Pre-Chorus]
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can't fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We're dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation
[Chorus]
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians

[Bridge]
War dance

[Refrain]
Territory, it's just the body of the nation
The people that inhabit it make its configuration
Prejudice, something we all can do without
Flag of many colors is what this land's all about

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
We all see in black and white
When it comes to someone else's fight
No one ever gets involved, no one
Apathy can never solve

[Pre-Chorus]
Forced out, brave and mighty
Stolen land, they can't fight it
Hold on to pride and tradition
Even though they know
How much their lives are really missing
We're dissing them
On reservations
A hopeless situation
[Chorus]
Cry for the Indians
Die for the Indians
Cry for the Indians
Cry, cry, cry for the Indians

[Outro]
Yeah
