lyrics

If you think that this is progress, you're the last to know
When your language loses flavor, hemorrhage starts to show
When the body's dried for hours on sweating August road
Blue will take the fear defense
Black blood under white robes

Lets assassinate the country, cut dirt from the grout
Bleach the asshole of the nation, licking crimsy pout
Finish whitewashing our signals leaving us no doubt
Poison in the water main or faces cracked in drought

When you own up to the slaughter of a million sons
When you stop telling the daughters they're not pretty ones
When you feel rejected cuz you dropped the wool that spun
Fear and blame society for those under the same sun

Violent opposition to those sittin in the throne
Born and bred to rip out teeth not platinum spoon alone
Dance or die in streets, state houses, in your daddy's home
Peace will come when justice comes, act like you didn't know

The laws of God and Government, consumed and taught as heaven sent
Are darkening the darker streets and sniffing for more blood to drink
So generations have to die to honor different shades of life??
We'll give the guns to animals and pray for peace for good and all
okay
