Moral Corruption

Do you really wonder why it is I chose this life
When every word you utter slices through me like a knife?
Look at how fucked up my generation is
And you guys wanna bitch about the way we raise our kids?

I truly love my country for what it’s supposed to be
But unlike most Americans some of us can see
That a green card and two brain cells is the hiring criteria
And you wonder why we’re suffering this financial hysteria?

I can’t recall the Iraqi people begging for our aid
But I remember Georgie Bush and his WMD charade
What if Arabs and Persians decided no more nukes allowed
And sent inspectors to America to start to snoop around?

And what about religion? Don’t get me started here
Catholicism preaching God while profiting off your fear
The Army trains our kids to kill and provides them with the gear
They return from war to be informed they’re too young to drink a beer
