The first song that I wrote with a political charge, for the upcoming album "The Cold War". This will be a dystopian look at America's possible future.
America seems, barely half awake
fiendin for things, game of give or take
expectations exceedin' the sky
deep in our hearts, where the staircases lye
hands reachin' out for the gimmies
shackles gettin' tight, but freedoms are slimming
end results of the national diet,
with revolution in mind walkin like a quiet riot
If we
flee
we aren't
free
democracy
comes with
a fee
Spreadin' the wealth, you'll be spreadin' disease
numbed for our health, barely feelin the breeze
lined around a corner, tryin' to feed
feel like I warned her, can't force her to see
lies between the lines, devised in our minds
when ignorance shines, as a sign of the times
invisible chains that are wrappin' our brains
keep us insane while expectin that change
If we
flee
we aren't
free
democracy
comes with
a fee
Inequality they scream, pay your share
empty your wallet in the quest for fair
while the elected dines on our declines
we bare it and grin or accept the fines
silence the many rewardin' the few
really must ask whats important to you
your favorite teams in faster 4G
or American dreams and your liberty
If we
flee
we aren't
free
democracy
comes with
a fee
