We live in a country where dropping bombs is like nothing.
Where spreading hate is not enough,
Because you have to walk away with something.
We share our pics and click our likes,
But the whole world knows that we're bluffing,
Because when it comes to opening arms,
It's more like we're pushing,
And shoving everyone else down.

We don't blame one freak but the whole crowd,
Unless it's a white boy.
We just zone out,
Because 'obviously no-ones been reaching out to him'.
We won't call him a bad guy,
Instead he's mental because of his skin
It's funny,
I'm pretty sure that's where a genocide begins.

And its not enough,
To push all these innocents away.
Back to a war torn country,
Ravaged by the greed of the leaders of the free
From our senators day.

We leave them there,
Penned up and tucked away
So when we drop the nukes,
None of the terrorists could possibly get away.

Hit me with something, tell it to me good.
Teach me a lesson, one that we should have
Embraced a long time ago.

Hit me with something, tell it to me good.
Teach me a lesson, one that we should have
Embraced a long time ago.

And they tell us it's okay.
This is the land of the free,
The land of the brave.
Since grade K,
We repeat their slogans in school,
But we don't pray.

To our dear Lord, dear God,
Dear Anyone-Up-There:
What is the price that we pay,
To keep the innocents
Digging mass graves for the lives that we slay
In the name of the american way
Of 'life'?

There's one love.
I don't care whose god.
What will it take for us to lay down our arms and just move on?

Unity.
That's what we've forgotten
When all is lost,
And we are all downtrodden,
Put aside the difference.
Look down at the fabric.
The cloth that we are cut from,
Is the same damn cotton.

Hit me with something, tell it to me good.
Teach me a lesson, one that we should have
Embraced a long time ago.

Hit me with something, tell it to me good.
Teach me a lesson, one that we should have
Embraced a long time ago.

Hit me with something, tell it to me good.
Teach me a lesson, one that we should have
Embraced a long time ago.

Hit me with something, tell it to me good.
Teach me a lesson, one that we should have
Embraced a long time ago.
