reservation of education - xit lyrics

[intro]
you’ve been born
into a world of sorrow
you’ve been born
to try and change tomorrow

[verse 1]
when i was young i heard of fate
but not the word segregate
oh i was raised in boarding school
and i was taught to ridicule

[verse 2]
when i was young i heard of hate
but not the word discriminate
oh i was told my way was wrong
and i must change to get along

[pre-chorus]
when i was very young
so very, very young

[chorus]
it’s a reservation of education
it’s a reservation of education
it’s a reservation of education
it’s a reservation of education

[verse 3]
big yellow bus took me away
where i would talk a different way
oh i was told where i would sleep
away from stars and my sheep

[pre-chorus]
when i was very young
so very, very young

[verse 4]
after all these years i finally come to see the light
but it’s hard for an indian boy to do what’s right
especially when he’s not white
he’s not white, he’s not white
he’s not white, he’s not white
he’s not white, he’s not white
he’s not white, he’s not white
he’s not white, he’s not white

[chorus]
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana

[guitar solo]

[verse 5]
now i wanna tell you that all that grit
you see on them john wayne movies is painted white
i said i wanna tell you that all that grit
that you see on them john wayne movies is painted hollywood white
and it’s not right, it’s not right
it’s not right, it’s not right
it’s not right, it’s not right
it’s not right, it’s not right

[chorus]
it’s a reservation of education
it’s a reservation of education
it’s a reservation of education
it’s a reservation of education

[verse 6]
i’m sure when you were young
that you played a game called cowboys and indians
i said i’m sure when you were young
that you played a game called cowboys and indians
but you’re all growed up now
but you’re still playing a game
but only now, it’s called
whiteman and indian
whiteman and indian
whiteman and indian
indian, indian
indian, indian
indian, indian
indian, indian
indian, indian
indian, indian
indian, indian

[chorus]
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
do-yah-ah-sho-n-dah
ah-bilagáana
