Understand and overlook
We hope to better understand
How things work
But we often overlook
Important signs
To better understand
We have to stand under
To shoulder the burden
Of life
When we stand under
We will understand
How the lowly and the silent
Support the high and glorious
When we stand under
We will understand
The burden, the pain, and the sorrow
The bond and the bondage
When we stand under
We will understand
How much we want to escape
Escape to the promise of religion
When we stand under
We will understand
How much we resent and admire
Those who stand over us
When we stand under
We will understand
How much we want to turn over
Turn over to stand over
When we stand over
The shoulders of the masses
We are far sighted
We lead the masses to a bright future
When we stand over
The shoulders of the masses
We are unburdened and free
Free to pursue our own interest
When we stand over
The shoulders of the masses
We will celebrate our farsightedness
We will celebrate our freedom
When we stand over
The shoulders of the masses
We want to make sure
We never have to stand under again
When we stand over
The shoulders of the masses
We will shackle the mind of the masses
We will overlook their misery
When we stand under
We shoulder the burden of life
We shoulder the bruises and pain
We understand the essence of life
When we stand over
The shoulders of the masses
We enjoy the farsightedness and freedom
We overlook the foundation of life
With better understanding
The standing under will topple
The standing over
Who overlook the standing under
The turn over between
The standing under and the standing over
Keeps the soil of life
Aerated and fertile
The turn over between
The standing under and the standing over
Keeps us understand more
And overlook less
