Antithesis - Politicide lyrics

Crooked politicians promise things And never see them through Bleed this country bankrupt All the while they're bleeding me and you Thousands here are homeless, starving in the streets, holding out their hands It's our responsibility when in need to cater foreign lands Land of the free, home of the brave Land of the tax, home of the slave Freedom comes at a price we all must pay We can't afford to buy our freedom For it men fight For it men die For that it costs to be free The more they take control The less free we become Election day is judgement day See the candidate telling two-faced lies, elected he betrays our trust We fall prey to a wolf in sheep's disguise Special interests, bureaucrats let their money talk Practice what they preach Another crooked candidate wins another vote Takes another seat In God we trust with every cent God can't approve how it is spent You can't always believe what the journalists report The media is biased the facts they will distort The networks and the news The tabloids and the press Program and confuse the right turn to the left A big conspiracy to keep us in the dark A shot heard 'round the world the sniper hit the mark
