Lyric discussion by bobwronski 

About the nature of man- his need for domination and the suppresion of competitors. The best lines are definitely:

And if in time We can see the errors of our ways Would anyone change it anyhow

Even though we acknowledge how wrong our past actions were (like past acts of genocide), people still commit them. It's something we all fight and supress, but it's still so ingrained into our nature that fierce dog-eat-dog competition is unavoidable.
