The way this world is rolling
we're all looking for our Mars
Some safe place to escape to
when it all falls apart
Some fly to the holy city
within the promised land
Some disappear to the jungle
Some bury heads deep in the sand
Some people pray to many gods
Some turn facing the east
Some run around plotting war
saying their religion means peace
Some live for today
Some will die by tomorrow
Some pledge their life to the government
Some to the almighty dollar
I don't know the answers
Don't fully understand the game
Turns out every know-it-all
has some trick card that they're playing
Tonight we watch Uprising
and Mordechai asks the world
"Can a moral man maintain his moral code
in an immoral world?"
