Once a sleeping giant awakened Now a troll in eternal sleep Corrupt policies with no apology Debt ceiling is through the roof The American dream is now a fucking nightmare One nation under God is now under raining ashes Red, white, and blue turned into red, black and blue Imperialism killed by its own fiscal terrorism Pork barrel spending by the pigs themselves Land of the free to the Chinese We the People now entombed This is how the eagle meets its doom ARMAGEDDON IS IN AMERICA ARMAGEDDON IS IN AMERICA ARMAGEDDON IS IN AMERICA ARMAGEDDON IS IN AMERICA America’s on its way to Megiddo World police not keeping peace War in our own backyard Is our own self-made Bockscar THE REBELLION THAT FORGED ANOTHER EMPIRE ON HER KNEES, SHE WILL EXPIRE

Another election let loose from their crippled grasp Absent minded, the flock shuffle on home Back to their over-indulgence of technology and provisions Ill-informed citizens await their new victor PROSTITUTION OF THE CONSITUTION BLASPHEMY OF LADY LIBERTY Their gullible ears hear in double Spoon-fed propaganda They guzzle down the lies Two parties spitting in the face of the Constitution Our two-way system Is flawed and imperfect The same perceptions told twice The same leader, different body Just another talking head Little progress for society Democracy is dead Every vote is the same The district is a whore Incest; fucking its own people Orgy of money The rich fuck us all We do not need their greed Crippling our infrastructure We must balance out their power Or we’ll be the 12th hour

I’m so sick of men and women, kids – CHILDREN Dying as pawns for the greed of others Kids my age and younger fighting for money; territory 21st century humans are still animals Why do we still do this? Technology advances but our minds stay the same Sophistication means bigger guns and bombs Political violence is caveman violence Regular people with friends and families Killing for what they believe is right What makes a country justified over another? Can global pacifism be achieved? Warfare…is it fair? (People always dying) Is it fair to our children? (Justified killing) To our brethren? Generation? (People always dying) Always killing; when will it end? (Justified killing) We still behave like fucking animals My flag, your flag; it’s all the same Humans are one among primitive beasts War is nothing but justified homicide OUR SPECIES KILLS ITSELF

Harmful conditions all have a price to pay The sick and dying live in constant fear Lose everything you've worked for to prevent drowning in debt Refill your prescription; pay the hefty fine Keep the system stable when you’re unable Families will suffer while you recover It won't get better; in debt forever Alive, the corporate empire while we expire The cost of getting better is a contagious disease The pigs feast in big wig hegemony They keep us off our feet; monopoly for the wealthy What doesn't kill us makes us poorer UNIVERSAL HEALTHSCARE UNIVERSAL HEALTHSCARE UNIVERSAL HEALTHSCARE UNIVERSAL HEALTHSCARE Who will you make your sacrifice? (Your sacrifice) Who will you say is unfit for life? (Unfit for life) Why do you take away our might? (Our life) You're nothing but a parasite. (A parasite)

Gripping these chains I’ve built for myself Entombed; buried myself alive I WILL NOT BE HELD DOWN I WILL NOT BE HELD DOWN I WILL NOT BE HELD DOWN I WILL NOT BE HELD DOWN Sinking; weights pull my body down Drowning; choking on my bile YOU WILL NOT HOLD ME DOWN YOU WILL NOT HOLD ME DOWN YOU WILL NOT HOLD ME DOWN YOU WILL NOT HOLD ME DOWN Defying their gravity. (Defying) Defying their gravity. (Defying) Defying their gravity. (Defying) Defying their gravity. (Defying) Gripping. Entombed. Sinking. Drowning. Gripping. Entombed. Sinking. Drowning.

Corporate redundancies to fill the pockets of mortal entities Deeming our fate by fiscal numbers statistically Evil’s gathered thought expel us all to rot Supplies aren't bulletproof Demand will fly through the roof Everything that's built will fall Everyone will pay the toll Leaves will fall from trees Life will adapt or cease All power spawns corruption We’ll all fall from its construction ONE NATION UNDER FRAUD ONE NATION UNDER FRAUD Forced to worship corporate devils, our minds disassemble Kneel before the king who take away everything Sacrifice to the deity, recreating eternity We bow to king of fools Weary mules following corrupt rules The eagles wings are broken Left wing, right wing Leave the people unspoken Presidents damning residents with their foul presence Decaying country raped by money Rise without the sun, fall long after it's gone Live in poverty; contribute to the robbery Enjoy the dysphoria; live in cremnophobia
