lyrics
I took on the weight of the world;
bucklin' my knockin' knees.
The least of these put my arms unfurled
but it came down and crushed me.
I took on the hateful big man;
bosses which control you.
Fickle and splitting those hairs
he raised himself to lower you.
Was it the weight of the least of these
or my willingness or my energies?
Was it the inner folk's talk that stopped
or the weight of the shame that I could give no more?
I fell from a foothold so high;
tumbling down hierarchies.
The bottom soon impeded my flight,
how it deaf dumb and blinded me.
At the top of that was a robber baron,
at the bottom was the people.
He don't see and he don't even care
how he don't believe he's evil.
bucklin' my knockin' knees.
The least of these put my arms unfurled
but it came down and crushed me.
I took on the hateful big man;
bosses which control you.
Fickle and splitting those hairs
he raised himself to lower you.
Was it the weight of the least of these
or my willingness or my energies?
Was it the inner folk's talk that stopped
or the weight of the shame that I could give no more?
I fell from a foothold so high;
tumbling down hierarchies.
The bottom soon impeded my flight,
how it deaf dumb and blinded me.
At the top of that was a robber baron,
at the bottom was the people.
He don't see and he don't even care
how he don't believe he's evil.
