Collateral Damage Lyrics

Did we rise above? Did we rise enough?
Did we rise at all? It's all that we knew...
Did things change for the best or get the better of you?
Did we rise above like we said we would do?
Or did we pass it on to somebody new?
Did we rise enough? Still payin' your dues?
Did things change for the best or get the better of you?

People who weren't there say it would've been great... It wasn't great though
To be a part of the fear with all the violence and hate... so much hate though
Those from back in the day say it's just not the same... it's not the same no
What if you could go back? Would you change a thing? So many things though

I don't know... if it's dead or if it's dying
I don't know... if it was true or a lie then

Did we rise above? Did we rise enough?
Did we rise at all? It's all that we knew...
Did things change for the best or get the better of you?

Did we rise above like we said we would do?
Or did we hand it off to somebody new?
Did we rise enough and do all we could do?
Did things change for the best of get the better of you?
People who weren't there say it would've been great... it wasn't great though


To be a part of the fear with all the violence and hate... so much hate though
Those from back in the day say it's just not the same... it's not the same no
What if you could go back? Would you change a thing?
So many things though
