  24197>The places that we live and the living that we did
  The places we were put and the things we were given
  He sings what they talk
 
 
  But they took away are pride but they didn't take our lives
  They took away the things that made us feel alive
 
 
  Said, "Ooh ooh, what have we become?
  What have we become?"
  Said, "Ooh ooh, how did this become?
  How did this become? How did this become?"
 
 
  In old woman we flex from the East to the West
  She thinks of her grandmother and her grandfather
  And strings that they had
 
 
  Now she looks to the arm, saw them sniffing on their drugs
  The drink in there has stolen so many souls
  And flooded her sacred blood
 
 
  She says, "Ooh ooh, what have we become?
  What have we become?"
  She says, "Ooh ooh, how did this become?
  How did this become?"
 
 
  She says, "Ooh ooh, the bottle took away my son
  It took away my son"
  She says, "Ooh ooh, where are we gonna run?
  What have we become?"
 
 
  She says, "Ooh ooh, what have we become?
  What have we become?"
  She says, "Ooh ooh, how did this become?
  How did this become?"
 
 
  She says, "Ooh ooh, see the bottle took away my son
  It took away my son"
  She says, "Ooh ooh, where are we gonna run?
  What have we become?"
