Injustice runs rampant in society You can even find it in our own pretty democracy Run!...Well no! Or hide in a 9 to 5 and don't care to know Impoverished and homeless don't have a choice Well, why should they? The money took their voice And it flows... Only prepare at the next media scare... Turn the TV on and tune out the sun Opinions decisions seem so black and white When we allow the media to chose our fight Never talk of s** but condemn all abortion Christian message is warped in transmitted distortion Fell the sea sickening rush of the great capitalist flush Spiraling down The destruction of all that's in our way When times get rough its time to pray A Nation of greed American apathy A path and a blown away seed Promoting self is the American way Globalization of greed Spiritual apathy A path and a hollow seed Structural collapse is on the way We're living, survival of the richest
Echoes rise up from the pit As the pendulum cuts them down And our American world, spins around Money makes money, while the poor can only get poorer Our economic equations include the bottom mans horror Some free men sit in prisons while some slaves sit in office Prejudice issues manage to linger We need reconciliation not pointing a finger So what is our ticket out now Where do we find truth? Many have lost their minds or died So we could indulge in our American pride And now we glance at some at the corner Who have been discarded and junked away And forced they work up scams To exist with me and you another day Consume. Pollute. Hate. Destroy Let go of possession, fear and pride When witnessing injustice don't find a way to hide Open our eyes to see every lie Because you'll never find justice till the day That you die
