lyrics

ELECTION SEASON

So you start a war with no plans to end it/ told so many lies/ lost so many lives/ you’re nothing more than a Ku Klux Klan descendant/ I watch your money rise/ from corporate ties/

I don’t wanna be, another piece in your game/ I don’t wanna hold, this blood stained American name/ You have shown me your concern/ As my stomach starts to turn/ I just sit here wishing I was somewhere free/ Truly Free

And so you say that city life is getting better/ Is that because street corner cameras get to watch me now/ Watch me while I/ Go about my business, which is no longer my business/

I knew it was them/ knocking on my door with stickers asking me to chip in/ for the campaign/ to go towards ads and champaigne/ put him up in office so he wont do a damn thing/ I can’t blame him/ he’s just a small part of the puzzle that’s stamped rich man’s land/ it aint him, it’s we who go and fall for the game/ we who don’t believe our voices put into action can make than change/ we who don’t vote but complain/ don’t get involved, watch the news every night and simply say it’s a shame/ when it’s a travesty, every day more Iraq tragedies/ and why we’re even at war to the day still baffles me/ Tsumani and 9/11 got billions sent to them/ but Katrina victims had to fight bare minimum/ I’m not a Patriot I can’t be they
stamped/ disrespected my people my family and still/ In November, best believe I cast my ballot so can’t nobody say my voice is invalid/ won’t nobody say my voice is invalid/ can’t nobody say my vice is invalid/

But I don’t wanna be, another piece in your game/ I don’t wanna hold, this blood stained American name/ You have shown me your concern/ As my stomach starts to turn/ I just sit here wishing I was somewhere free/
