lyrics

Verse 1

The symmetry is off - mentally we lost
Hell is here on Earth - in the heavens be the Gods
Organize a peaceful assembly - get shot
Chest burnin' like drinkin' Hennessy in shots
No peace of mind when the enemies are cops
What part of the game is that? - man it's sending me a shock
Let's just see - let's get free and be the boss
Close the pages of your Facebook - we need to talk
Squeezin' on your cross - the industry is soft
So we think about Big L and memories of Pac
Scumbag politicians - guns clap - fallen victims
Love's wack - God is missin' - Trump hats - bomb the system
Stop and listen - opposition attackin' all the lobbyists
They pander to be popular - gassin' up the populace
I'm anti-Congress and pro-progress
Keep the flow conscious and the beats so monstrous

Hook:

SEE THAT? THAT'S CORRUPTION IN AMERICA
NO TRUST AND THEY DON'T CARE FOR YA - NO LOVE AND THEY JUST BURY YA
HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUNDS OF THE POLICE SIRENS
HANDS ARE UP - THEY KEEP FIRIN' - AFTERWARDS THEY KEEP SMILIN'
SMELL THAT? THAT'S A FRESH PRINT OF LEGAL TENDER
FUELIN' WARS - NUKES AND MORE - POWER TO THE PEOPLE - NEVER
TASTE THAT? THAT'S THE POISON IN THE WATER
THEY KEEP IT FLOWIN' - KEEP IT GOIN' - REJOICE WHEN WE'RE SLAUGHTERED
FEEL THAT? THAT'S THE PAIN IN OUR HEARTS
WHEN OUR CHILDREN DON'T SEE LOVE - JUST HATE FROM THE START

Verse 2

These streets are real - you got single mothers wit' dreams
Fathers who are drug dealers and your brother's a fiend
Others'll scheme - by any means necessary to uncover the green
Some of us think reality is a feed cluttered wit' memes
There's a hole in America's soul and we caused it
We used to have heart in the game but we lost it
We go from being selfless to selfish - expose our miserable self
Our self-worth is countless selfies of our digital self
Toxicity publicity - oceans dying - filthy seas
We need more ownership - more bad cops wit' guilty pleas
Some are hopeless wit' prescriptions - tryin' to cope wit' the addictions
Some are hopin' and they're wishin' - there's no notice of eviction
Some are focused on religion and find their faith in a chapel
Some claim they're ready to fight but you never see their face in a battle
It's the Age Of The Jackal - global pandemic - social collapse
The noble can't mend it - our souls are just trapped

Hook:

SEE THAT? THAT'S CORRUPTION IN AMERICA
NO TRUST AND THEY DON'T CARE FOR YA - NO LOVE AND THEY JUST BURY YA
HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUNDS OF THE POLICE SIRENS
HANDS ARE UP - THEY KEEP FIRIN' - AFTERWARDS THEY KEEP SMILIN'
SMELL THAT? THAT'S A FRESH PRINT OF LEGAL TENDER
FUELIN' WARS - NUKES AND MORE - POWER TO THE PEOPLE - NEVER
TASTE THAT? THAT'S THE POISON IN THE WATER
THEY KEEP IT FLOWIN' - KEEP IT GOIN' - REJOICE WHEN WE'RE SLAUGHTERED
FEEL THAT? THAT'S THE PAIN IN OUR HEARTS
WHEN OUR CHILDREN DON'T SEE LOVE - JUST HATE FROM THE START

YOU SEE THAT - HEAR THAT - SMELL THAT - TASTE THAT - FEEL THAT
THAT'S THE SENSES OF THE CENSUS
