#bebest
You're an epic success or a fucking failure
And there's no in between
You can rise above or you can sink like a stone
And it's nobody's fault but your own
Nevermind generational poverty
Nevermind the fucking patriarchy
And forget about those deeply held racist beliefs
That's a first amendment thing
They focus on the individual
To obscure the systems that affect us all
Did you ever notice how our Overton Window
Is well and truly broken?
There's a sliver of daylight on the left
And on the right it's wide fucking open
They'll have you committed if you say with a straight face
"You know, we don't need capitalism"
But jail a couple thousand non-white kids for no reason
And the world just keeps on turning
And the geo group turns a profit
And their christian base fucking loves it
Make no mistake we've all been poisoned
Whether it's the lead in our pipes or the propaganda on our airwaves
And a whole world of institutions designed to fails us
While they function for somebody else
They focus on the individual
To obscure the fact that this is hell
And there's no in between
You can rise above or you can sink like a stone
And it's nobody's fault but your own
Nevermind generational poverty
Nevermind the fucking patriarchy
And forget about those deeply held racist beliefs
That's a first amendment thing
They focus on the individual
To obscure the systems that affect us all
Did you ever notice how our Overton Window
Is well and truly broken?
There's a sliver of daylight on the left
And on the right it's wide fucking open
They'll have you committed if you say with a straight face
"You know, we don't need capitalism"
But jail a couple thousand non-white kids for no reason
And the world just keeps on turning
And the geo group turns a profit
And their christian base fucking loves it
Make no mistake we've all been poisoned
Whether it's the lead in our pipes or the propaganda on our airwaves
And a whole world of institutions designed to fails us
While they function for somebody else
They focus on the individual
To obscure the fact that this is hell
