Wake up America, it’s time to realize,
We’re ALL being robbed by just a handful of guys.
They’re unconscionably greedy, corrupt, and lovele$$ to the core.
Don’t care what’s fair or right for US, ‘cause they make THE LAW
Tax cuts and loops for the wealthy
Leaving the rest of us in poverty and despair
While they live their criminal lives in luxury
Without a conscious care
It’s OUR hard earned money
That made our great nation wealthy
While their 1 % hordes half of it
Leaving 99% of us struggling and unhealthy
They control all our media
To keep us in ignorance and fear
With nasty campaigns of lies and hate
Making truth something now all too rare
They push their guns for us to kill
Then incite our hurting each other
Setting victim against victim
And brother against brother
While black lives do matter,
So do our brave in blue,
Hating and killing each other
Is exactly what they want us to do.
But fret not my sisters and brothers
We have power greater than they want you to know
Because of viral email, movies and books
WE can now make these greedy bastards go
We can demand laws designed to free us
And make the filthy rich pay their fair share
Then fix all our depleted programs
Because OUR money will still be there
We are 330 million strong now
Versus just a handful of billionaire puppeteers
Who pull the strings on ‘all’ our law-fakers
And have been for so many years
It’s time we all unite US -
From the hellbent red to the too passive blue,
We can take our country back without violence
If you’ll just let me show you what We must now do.
It’s OUR’MERICA AFTER ALL
And Congress belongs to us all
These $leazy law-faker$ are not our bosses,
So united We must stand - or divided we will fall
So STOP attacking your fellow victims?
OUR real enemies got you - eating out of their hand
It’s time to redirect that righteous anger
So together we can take back our hard-earned land
We started waking up in the sixties
When pot openned millions of eyes
To choose a united loving brotherhood
Over fighting their wars where everyone dies
So it’s time to go Purple, Our’merica
It’s our only way out of their game
victim HURTING victim has got to stop!
And we need to start calling each other by name - my Brother, my Sister.
