Land of the Free?

Verse 1:

I wanna know why everyone has a shitty life,

Why our beautiful Earth is clouded with conflict and strife,

Why the leaders of these nations sending young men to die,

While they sit back and watch their money stack to the sky,

On the TV the medias job is to feed us all lies,

"Don't worry bout those dead children, everything's fine,

Planes and drones dropping bombs on civilians homes,

"Daddy please wake up, don't leave us here all alone,"

Drone strikes in Iraq, chemical war in Syria,

Why cant we put an end to this fuckin hysteria,

Because the bitches at the top don't value a human life,

They don't care about nothing but their bank account looking right,

Makes no difference who you vote for, wake the fuck up,

No way the American public is as dumb as they look,

Don't matter who's in power, it's an embedded fuckin cycle,

Power is the only thing that matters to them despite the,

Genocide and nukes, starving kids and cancer patients,

Politician's don't care 'long as you at the polling station,

Congrats! They got your vote with their stupid fuckin campaign,

Now what? Sorry to tell you your vote was cast in vain,

Doesn't matter who's in office when the system is corrupt,

Corruption so deep that every one of us is fucked,

Start feeling hopeless cause that shit has been broke for centuries,

But keep letting them tell you that this is the land of the free

 

Verse 2:

40 years ago CIA got our ghettos addicted to coke,

100 years ago our women aint have the right to vote,

5 years ago Trayvon was shot dead in the street,

Another victim of the system that makes us all weep,

You see, pre-Civil Rights? Wasn't that long ago,

In fact to me it feels like times moving kinda slow,

Cause there's still a disconnect between races that goes to show,

That our problems aint over, might even have more,

Are we really making progress, or are we just shifting?

Is the present getting better or are we believing in fiction?

Your political beliefs are fuckin irrelevant,

If you got party affiliation I hope that you're celibate,

We don't need you brainwashing the next generation,

Next thing we know, mindless fools are comprising our nation,

Nobody thinks for themselves, we just follow the leader,

"Tell us what to believe sir, please, we need ya!"

Pick up a book, open your mind do something productive,

Distracted by money sex and everything that's seductive,

Hook the ghetto on pussy, xanax and promethazine,

The ability to think turns into a hazy dream,

See they don't want the poor folks getting too smart,

Latch them to drugs and welfare, tear their brains apart,

Because once they figure out what the fuck's going on,

Once they figure out why some are rich and some aren't,

I guarantee we gonna see a sea of blood and misery,

Gonna be worse than the punishments from Deuteronomy,

I better be wrong, I hope none of this is true,

I hope we don't have to restart a broken world from anew
