a boy sits in prison
taken from his family
they said he killed a girl
for 6 dollars and some change
the jury saw the evil
in the man that sat before them
but often times the truth
is way more than meets the eye

i watched it on the tv
when the plane hit the building
fear, hate, and anger,
all boiled up in me
the man behind the podium
blamed the terrorists and weapons
but often times the truth
is way more than meets the eye

satellites and aeroplanes
unlocking all the heavens
but much to our dismay
found no god that lives inside
no angels in the clouds above
no man set way up high
but all too often truth
is way more than meets the eye
