Ben Harper - How Many Miles Must We March Lyrics

Exactly how much will have to burn?
Before we will look to the past to learn
We walk along this endless path
Which has led us in a circle so here we are right back
We can't let the future become our past
If we are to change the world
Won't you tell me? Tell me please

How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?

When I was a baby I was not prejudiced
Hey how about you?
This was something that I learned in the school
Something they taught us to do
We can't let the future become our past
If we are to change the world
Won't you tell me? Tell me please

How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?

There must come a day
When a box is not somebody's home
The unfinished work of our heroes
Must truly be our own
We can't let the future become our past
If we are to change the world
Won't you tell me? Tell me please

How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we?
How many miles? How many miles?
