It's about the time that we open up our eyes
And come to grips with the facts that they're feeding us these lies
We've been trained to conform, trained to comply
They tell us to jump, we ask them "How high?"
Mesmerized by the screen in the palm of your hands
Zombies feed into the greed that fattens up Uncle Sam
Tax the air that we breathe, our dreams will be banned
Liberty is a scheme in the promised land
Now pledge your allegiance to the dollar sign
Hypnotized by your pride in the stars and stripes
Congress sells our rights to the highest bribe
I guess oppression is American as apple pies
Victims made over race won't make front page news
But we'll pay tribute to our boys in blue
With no mention of the endless systematic abuse
Cuz they got us where they want us underneath their boots
From sea to dying sea through amber waves of flames
Our lady liberty no longer lights the way
One foot in the store, one foot in the grave
You're asleep in the machine called the USA
Dance while you can cuz it helps you hide what life is
Were all blind in the middle of a crisis
When you buy you never think what the price is
Were all blind in the middle of a crisis
Was it bad when that man took a stand with a knee?
Did he shit on the flag with an act of free speech?
But you don't understand just attack and disagree
It's the plan to distract and divide the country
Cuz the red hate the blue and the left hate the right
Pick a side just to prove even you can decide
But behind every move is a ruse that they hide
And the swine follow suit to the slaughter house line
In the land of the fee and the home of the slave
Will you work for a week to get by for a day
Pick between basic needs or keep food on your plate
Just to meet our ends meat is a pipe dream away
We're empty and as hollow as the "O" inside of God
Minds erased but entertained by fake celebutantes
They've arranged the great rat race to cage the bourgeoisie
Police state and crooked banks will create a holocaust
Dance while you can cuz it helps you hide what life is
Were all blind in the middle of a crisis
When you buy you never think what the price is
Were all blind in the middle of a crisis
Wheres our separation of church and state?
Are we a nation under God or under magistrate?
When the gavel crashes down it decides your fate
And treatments not an option they incarcerate
Cuz another man in shackles is a dollar in the wallet
It's the legalized solution when the slave trade was abolished
Mandatory minimums are in placed to take us hostage
Exploitation turns a profit that's just simple economics
They supplied the drugs they fight inside their psuedo war
Then infiltrate the ghettos and utilize the poor
We're pit against each other and their plan keeps moving forward
While the one percent watch from the stands eating their popcorn
When money tips the scales of fate is justoce really blind?
Exonerate Brock Turners rape because his race is white
Put a black man in his place and he'll pay twice
Play it safe and look away, live in compromise
