And so does war

 

It's survival of the fittest

 

Rich against the poor

 

At the end of the day

 

It's a human trait

 

Hidden deep down inside of our DNA

 

One man can build a bomb

 

Another run a race

 

To save somebody's life and have it blow up in his face

 

I'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand

 

I'm not afraid of God

 

I am afraid of man

 

Is it running in our blood

 

Is it running in our veins

 

Is it running in our genes

 

Is it in our DNA

 

Humans aren't gonna behave as we think we always should

 

Yeah we can be bad as we can be good

 

Underneath it all we're just savages

 

Hidden behind shirts ties and marriages

 

How could we expect anything at all

 

We're just animals still learning how to crawl

 

We live we die

 

We steal we kill we lie

 

Just like animals

 

But with far less grace

 

We laugh we cry

 

Like babies in the night

 

Forever running wild

 

In the human race

 

Another day another tale of rape

 

Another ticking bomb to bury deep and detonate

 

I'm not the only one who finds it hard to understand

 

I'm not afraid of God

 

I am afraid of man

 

You can see it on the news

 

You can watch it on TV

 

You can read it on your phone

 

You can say it's troubling

 

Humans aren't gonna behave as we think we always should

 

Yeah we can be bad as we can be good

 

Underneath it all we're just savages

 

Hidden behind shirts ties and marriages

 

How could we expect anything at all

 

We're just animals still learning how to crawl

 

Underneath it all we're just savages

 

Hidden behind shirts ties and marriages

 

Truth is in us all cradle to the grave

 

We're just animals still learning to behave

 

All the hate coming out from a generation

 

Who got everything and nothing guided by temptation

 

Were we born to abuse shoot a gun and run

 

Or has something deep inside of us come undone

 

Is it a human trait or is it learned behaviour

 

Are you killing for yourself or killing for your saviour

 

Underneath it all we're just savages

 

Hidden behind shirts ties and marriages

 

How could we expect anything at all

 

We're just animals still learning how to crawl

 

Underneath it all we're just savages

 

Hidden behind shirts ties and marriages

 

Truth is in us all cradle to the grave

 

We're just animals still learning to behave
