Home Of The Brave

Now let's talk about self expression, true expression

Open your minds without question

No doubt, tell me what you're thinking about

Let's try to set aside pride and clout

Can you believe I feel the same exact way you do?

You truly do believe these modern ways have fooled you

Systems exist so we never meet each other

Pretty soon from now that I'll long the word "brother"

And that's true if they see you walking with a crew

If you don't know, that means more than two

I'll tell you what they'll do

They'll pull over, hunt you over

Kick your ass, nightstick to your shoulder

I know it's unjust, as if it wasn't enough

If you try to fight back they're locking your ass up

And Chuck already told you that a cell is hell

But I'm waiting for the phone so I'll sit for a spell

Call the guard, tell him I'm a piece of God

With no beliefs in his streets or his boulevards

I eat, read so my mental is hard

And the heat from my anger just melted the bars

They reach for their guns so I put them to sleep

Break the chains and put the shoes back on my feet

He's on the loose with no discernible scars or marks

Just the mind of Mandela and the heart of Rosa Parks

So I dip, time to see the governor and mayor

Tell them life ain't fair and see if they care

Well they do, but only if they are the heir

So they appear to have a heart and make a flair

But they haven't done shit for us and that's a fact

Their only function is to keep the funny money where it's at

And it causes pain, stress

Ask me if we need a different way of life (yes)

Headline: Bush steals the presidency

He needs the backing of the media what could the remedy be?

The country's headed for recession reminiscent of the Great Depression

Are lives worth a world of power? Easy question

Planes hit the towers and the Pentagon

Killing those the government wasn't dependant on

It's easy to control the scared so they keep us in fear

With their favorite Middle Eastern demon named Bin Laden this year

Bush disguises blood lust as patriotism

Convincing the living to love "Operation Let's Get 'Em"

But when he realized we don't support their attacks

They needed something to distract, hmm, anthrax

This further demonizes Afghanis

So Americans cheer while we kill their innocent families

And what better place to start a war

To build a pipeline to get the oil that they had wanted before

America supported the Taliban

To get Russia out of Afghanistan

That's how they got the arms in

They're in a war against the Northern Alliance

And we can't build a pipeline in hostile environments

Here's what your history books won't show:

You're a dead man for fucking with American dough

They killed several birds with one stone

While you're at home with anti-terrorism up in your dome

But my eyes are wide open and my TV is off

Great, 'cause I save on my electricity cost

And you can wave that piece of shit flag if you dare

But they killed us because we've been killing them for years
