Got No Say
Been forever now
Since a voice held a vote
Can’t recall when us became them
Well, you got no say
The colors dim
And streets get muddy
From shrapnel thrown around
Well, you got no say
Hate those ways
Deceptive and terrible too
Long gone is saying I told you so
Because it came true
You can’t run
There’s no hiding now
So rise up before they bury you
Fight the submission
Tax the wealthy
Rubber band their future
Let them crawl with no destination
Now, you got no say
Get back in line
Drink up what you urinate
Live in squalor with no health care
Now, you got no say
Eat up your money
Starve and know desperation
Being helpless is the American dream
We’re at war with ourselves
Smash the hypocrisy
This charade has no patriots
Those in power have a debt to repay
We’ll find out who’s who
