You might wonder how such a regime can exist.
Why don't North Koreans protest the regime?
If you were born in this country,
If you were brainwashed from childhood,
If you knew nothing about the outside world,
You would be just like us
You would be just like us
Make sure people cannot see or hear the world beyond the border!
Make them monitor each other and reward those who report wrongdoing!
Force them to watch public executions and make them obey through fear!
Use schools to brainwash children from a young age,
making them slaves to the regime!
If you are watched all the time,
If your family is taken away,
If you see someone being executed,
You would be just like us
You would be just like us
Our eyes are covered, our ears are blocked
We live in a prison, unaware we’re trapped,
Our eyes are covered, our ears are blocked
We live in a prison, believing it’s a utopia!
If you were born in this country,
If you were brainwashed from childhood,
If you knew nothing about the outside world,
You would be just like us
You would be just like us
