You can kill the thinker but you can't kill the thought
Pay attention to the government into which you have bought
Puppets on the strings never stepping outta line
If you were to step out do you think that'd be fine?

Don't count on it
Cause you can't count on them
They're too preoccupied the powerful
Yet there are mouths to be fed
We rape nations of their freedom
While our people sit and stare
CNN inflicts the fear and pain
"AMERICANS BEWARE!"

Yet we all stand back
Quite content with our lives
But one day the people will take a stand
Like a ***** off beehive
So grab hold of your dignity
Your words are your weapon
Be persistant in your goals
The feds will hate where you're steppin'

Now whatcha' gonna do bout the life we live?
Are we gonna to keep taking?
When are we gonna give?
Don't believe the bull***** they feed you
None of it is the truth
What will you do about the problem?
What if it was your roof?
