One cause canceled out the other. (Remastered)

V5

【 intro ] Oh , oh, [Verse 1] They told me: “Look — it’s always the same crowd, The ones who lead us where the air turns foul. Words of hatred echoed everywhere, It wasn’t Jean, nor Charles Pierre… but Zouhair, [Chorus] One cause canceled out the other. So we'd ignore the struggles of a brother. We watched them weary, blind eyes closing tight, Still refusing to see the world in light. [Verse 2] When synagogues or mosques were harmed or shamed, They said: “And churches — are they ever named?” None but themselves found mercy in their view, Their world — a mirror, frozen in its hue. [Chorus] One cause canceled out the other. So none would feel the pain that binds a brother. We saw them weary, blind eyes on the run, Refusing still to see the kinder sun. [Verse 3] Yes — unity itself made them dismayed, A team of color made them afraid. They cursed the courts, declaring all things unjust, Believing law condemned their blood, their trust. [Chorus] One cause canceled out the other. So none would grieve the loss that touched another. We watched them fading, blind hearts slowly dying, Clinging to a world no longer worth reviving. [Bridge] But when reason and science called them back, They raised their arms — on every front attacked. They forged new words, a bitter glossary, Harsh words to hurl at truth and memory. [Outro] “Red Justice!” “Leftism!” “Wokismmm!” they cry, Newspeak cloaked in their own tongue’s disguise. Insinuations, to spill their bile with ease, One-dimensional — their soul’s disease. Unbrotherly — their creed’s unease.
