Overstated

I love that I remember, you hate that you forget I was raised to surrender, you were raised to regret You should tell me a little story but the version I select Then you will see You've overstated and you've overstayed We don't want reparations we only want change So you offer your cheek but you turn the other way So you never have to see you never have to mean a thing You offer platitudes of sorrow, it becomes about you feeling bad You can sit down tomorrow and see the yesterdays we've had They're there for your enjoyment, you can never see us getting mad I should just let it be So that all this can continue it's the way it's always been There's a million fish inside this ocean, only one has learned to swim He knows how this will turn out, so we throw it all to Him So we're not to blame You've overstated and you've overstayed We don't want reparations we only want change So you offer your cheek but you turn the other way So you never have to see you never have to mean a thing Tonight we let our National Guard down Our kids don't know who they are now We're broke, just trying to sell out It's time we learn to fight for ourselves Instead of waiting for everyone else To get what we're talking about You've overstated and you've overstayed We don't want reparations we only want change So you offer your cheek but you turn the other way So you never have to see you never have to mean a thing
