Zero

lies we’ve been told keep fairy tale flow        
Just listen just Listen to me      
Buy a big house Without the money        
Use all your credit The Debt is free Till
You lose everything need help turn to the cross      

Praise god and a flag Religiously blindbandwagon          
Preaching prophecy Blaming god casually      
Why earths a catastrophe        
     
Listen to scientist paid By yours truly      
Politicians big companies      
Terrible can’t unsee Lacks all color won’t believe      
     
Just listen      
Listen to me          
How does a plant grow in oil      
How do you breathe without a mask)      
     
I’m part of the 0% percent      
Won’t trust you won’t regret      
Pay no attention none spent      
I’m part of the zero percent        
No ones leaving Till we fix this mess      
     
Been around enough
People do stupid stuff      
Sit around watch the clock      
Tick what we have left      
     
It’s Kinda crazy we only vote on personality                  
Loaned us the world And the blame      
Didn’t hear us complain the Pens Too loud      
While they are Autographing welfare checks      
     
Handed us the keys We’re Aimed down hill      
sold the steering wheel Sharp turn no brakes      
But If we make it Take all credit        
     
Don’t you know      
this is my world      
I live here too      
   
How does a tree grow in oil      
How will you breath Without a mask      
     
I’m part of the 0% percent      
Won’t trust you won’t regret      
Pay no attention none spent      
I’m part of the zero percent      
No ones leaving Till we fix this mess      
     
Don’t you know      
this is my world      
I live here too      
How does a tree grow in oil      
How will you breath Without a mask
