The Way It Is
This is the way it is going to be they say
And they start off to show you the way
The new ruling class at work
Rules drilled into young minds by those filled with fear
Of the new and unknown, or the different and scary
The new old American way
Close all the borders and build your tall walls
And stagnate from the inside out
Watch the best and brightest run for the hills of different countries
Become a fearful and singularly aligned nation
Row upon row of the white minority
Flexing their white might upon those of colour
Fully believing that their way is the only one to take
A country burning around their knees
And enjoying the smell of the smoke
It's a hell of a time to be free
And they start off to show you the way
The new ruling class at work
Rules drilled into young minds by those filled with fear
Of the new and unknown, or the different and scary
The new old American way
Close all the borders and build your tall walls
And stagnate from the inside out
Watch the best and brightest run for the hills of different countries
Become a fearful and singularly aligned nation
Row upon row of the white minority
Flexing their white might upon those of colour
Fully believing that their way is the only one to take
A country burning around their knees
And enjoying the smell of the smoke
It's a hell of a time to be free
