The true nature of man
Unbreakable Man

They don't think he knows
Who he is
Where he is from
What he is doing
Oh, so sad, such a waste
The abortion in his eyes!
The bullets in his hand!
Yet...
He is still a man

Blood drips from his mind
The crucifixion of their convictions
Shave his head, shave his soul!
Break his fingers, break his heart!
Take his love away
And there he stands
They bleed his spirit!
Yet...
He is still a man

Tear the skin from his bones!
Cut the tongue from his mouth!
Take his voice!
Take his mind!
Take his body!
They keep him alive...for what?
Their sadistic animalistic carnal pleasures?
Yet...
He is still a man

He thinks!
He knows!
He loves!
He believes!
Past their cutthroat prejudices
Past their vomiting hatreds
Through the darknes of their imposed blindness!
Yes...
He is still a man
