Don't let fightin' this beast make a beast outta' you Sometimes I feel like a monster cleanin my 12 gauge Contemplating if I can murder or not, escape routes, and getaways But the rude awakenin' is man, they lockin' us in cages Tellin' us to abort our babies while they collect sperm donations Attempted depletion of a righteous nation We got a 100 cable stations, but something is what none of 'em are sayin' My eyelids achin' from bein' open so wide, space age genocide They can try but they can't hide, the fact that there's hope My history ain't start on no boat, chained and bound And the beauty is found that we fall, trip, but never hit the ground
