Floyd Red Crow Westerman's "How Long have you Been Blind" Lyrics.
Trouble in the city
Trouble in the country side
Can't sweep it under the rug
You got trouble you can't hide
Trouble on a reservation
Trouble in the ghetto too
And the lies you told my children
Are coming down on you
How long have you been blind?
Been coming a long, long time!
Trouble in the jail house
Trouble out in the street
You can't blame it on someone else
You got no place to retreat
Trouble in your courtroom
Trouble written on the wall
And all the pieces of your mistakes
Are starting to fall
How long have you been blind?
Been coming a long, long time!
And now the crowd is leaving
But they got no place to go
There's a red man in the mountain
Standing in the snow
Time will be a season
I know it will come to pass
But those who listen to the sign
Will behold to a land
How long have you been blind?
Been coming a long, long time!
Trouble with the countries
Trouble with the way you live
You've been taking for so long
You don't know how to give
How long have you been blind?
Been coming a long, long time!
