The Divide’s A Lie Lyrics by Chad Rising
In our celebration we oppress half of the nation
Other side of the divide celebrates the other side’s demise
Neither wants to look inside, separate the truth from lies
Yeah that’s the true divide and it’s contagious
The divide’s a lie, told you a thousand times
Do I really have to go and tell you again?
Only separation is in your head
Ain’t no line, oh we must combine
Do I really gotta say it in a thousand ways?
Only separation is the one you make
The divide’s a lie, the divide is a lie
With our nomination (because your vote matters)
We perpetuate a myth (ha!)
Power pushers contemplate and there’s so much at stake
Yet they’re no deeper than the skin
All I ask is take a dive into the depths of why
There’s such a deep divide, a separation
The divide’s a lie, told you a thousand times
Do I really have to go and tell you again?
Only separation is in your head
Ain’t no line, oh we must combine
Do I really gotta say it in a thousand ways?
Only separation is the one you make
The divide’s a lie, the divide is a lie
Relinquish these lines, lines you see
Only then will we all, all be free
It’s a lie-lie-lie-lie
The divide-vide-vide-vide
What you seek you will find
But nobody’s seeking high
It’s a lie-lie-lie
The divide-vide-vide
What you’re seeking ain’t to fly
And all I’m asking you is why?
The divide’s a lie, told you a thousand times (oh why?)
Do I really have to go and tell you again?
Only separation is in your head (why ain’t you seeking to fly?)
Ain’t no line, oh we must combine (the divide’s a lie)
Do I really gotta say it in a thousand ways? (oh)
Only separation is the one you make (come on and cross that line)
The divide’s a lie, the divide is a lie (no divide, oh my, that’s right)
Relinquish these lines, lines you see
Only then will we all, all be free
The divide oh it’s a lie, the divide oh it’s a lie
(only then will we all be free)
The divide oh it’s a lie, the divide oh it’s a lie
The divide oh it’s a lie, the divide oh it’s a lie
(please believe)
The divide oh it’s a lie, the divide oh it’s a lie
