Dying Nation
(专辑: Southernunderground - 2003)
"There's an old saying in Tennesse-I know it's in Texas, it's probably in Tennesse-that says fool me once, shame on-shame on you. If you fool me you can't get fooled again." I
live in a
nation that relies on business and crime And the
leaders are politician guys living a
lie Who bullshit like everyone else for a
nickel and dime America... just as corrupt as it is online Using freedom and entertainment just to keep us sedated But remember what the
declaration of independence stated? All men are equal and that's the
way they're created? But when that was written, black and white people were segregated And this country still breeds racism, just not as blatant To call us the
land of the
free is overstatement Cause ain't NOBODY free. We all being watched quietly National security's an invasion of privacy Drug Trafficking, conspiracy, murder and piracy What America can't have they take silently Sometimes violently, open up your eyes and see Even dirty money is supporting our economy It's all backwards like negative split photography But I
guess that's the
way it's got to be United we stand on this land and we do all crimes Facing a
Dying Nation listening for the
new told lies "Facing a
dying nation. Listening for the
new told lies" "Facing a
dying nation. Listening for the
new told lies" I
live in a
nation where it ain't what's physical that fights us Now it's silent strikes from political insiders A
black market government where being criminal is righteous Ran by bloodlines that were dirty before Isis The
crisis has even spread to spiritual infestations Confessionals filled with sexual molestations Professionals so set on capitalization They don't notice their children freebasing in their million Dollar basements Babies having babies in the
hood I
grew up in Hands are too small for the
guns that they be busting Schools underfunded, graduates retain nothing On Capitol Hll it's barely a
topic of discussion Kids like, why should I
think about college When this hood situation is holding me hostage And even if I
fought and bought the
knowledge I'd prolly get shot 41 times by a
cop over my wallet Shiiiiit... So wherever you are Don't inhale the
second hand smoke from its victory cigar Motivate yourself don't just stand on the
side Facing a
dying nation and listening to the
new told lies "Facing a
dying nation. Listening for the
new told lies" "Facing a
dying nation. Listening for the
new told lies" Somebody dial 9-1-1 It's mass confusion, mass contusions At last we losing Uncle Sam to a
mass of tumors And that's the
rumor at least, it's soon to be seen If its true that the
beast is soon to decease Catching blood clots in the
crude oil That runs through his veins and up thru his brain Its tough to maintain If he was low income he'd already been gone Insurance paperwork gettin handled by Enron And scandalous friends call to speak Even Bill O'Reilly's wrapped in a
hospital bedsheet With a
pointed hat, where the
ointment at? Wax the
taxpayers backside for a
tax hike Woulda had a
Catholic priest at his bedside But they were too busy giving these Boy Scouts a
leg ride Temperature stay high but no pain Cus the
presidents Hooked on Phonics and cocaine Product of old age and Alzheimers disease Medical bills raised from all types of fees Looks to the
American people to show love But his Social Security ran out pull the
plug [*Flatline*]
