I Hate It Here
Is it just me
Or are they pretending
Pretending like they aren't guilty
They love the machine
They hate when it's changing
History never-ending
I felt a stir at the core of the earth
Started breaking foundations for all that they're worth
As they stood at the altar protecting the dirt
I watched as people with hunger and thirst
Held out their hands to the ones who go first
But they sent them away with their blood on their shirts
I hate it here
They say that I should leave if I don't like it
Maybe I want to
Hell I would love to
Stuck in an echo chamber screaming for rights
It's die or comply
I hate it here
I've never had
A gun to my head
From one who assumes I'm danger
I never awake
With fear of my death
From someone who's sworn protector
If you look like me then you have it easy
There's a battle on life that you don't have to see
It's a failure of I have to see to believe
I don't know how you think you're gonna see
When you're plugging your ears
And the truth's in your teeth
Don't like the taste of it? Neither do we
I hate it here
They say that I should leave if I don't like it
Maybe I want to
Hell I would love to
Stuck in an echo chamber screaming for rights
It's die or comply
I hate it here
Land of the free
I'll never say it
Justice and peace
They'll never say it
Land of the free
I'll never say it
If I don't feel it
How could I say it
They say "Don't say a word if you don't like it"
I'll never be quiet
When people are dying
They say that I should leave if I don't like it
Maybe I want to
Hell I would love to
Stuck in an echo chamber screaming for rights
It's die or comply
I hate it here
I hate it here
I hate it here
Or are they pretending
Pretending like they aren't guilty
They love the machine
They hate when it's changing
History never-ending
I felt a stir at the core of the earth
Started breaking foundations for all that they're worth
As they stood at the altar protecting the dirt
I watched as people with hunger and thirst
Held out their hands to the ones who go first
But they sent them away with their blood on their shirts
I hate it here
They say that I should leave if I don't like it
Maybe I want to
Hell I would love to
Stuck in an echo chamber screaming for rights
It's die or comply
I hate it here
I've never had
A gun to my head
From one who assumes I'm danger
I never awake
With fear of my death
From someone who's sworn protector
If you look like me then you have it easy
There's a battle on life that you don't have to see
It's a failure of I have to see to believe
I don't know how you think you're gonna see
When you're plugging your ears
And the truth's in your teeth
Don't like the taste of it? Neither do we
I hate it here
They say that I should leave if I don't like it
Maybe I want to
Hell I would love to
Stuck in an echo chamber screaming for rights
It's die or comply
I hate it here
Land of the free
I'll never say it
Justice and peace
They'll never say it
Land of the free
I'll never say it
If I don't feel it
How could I say it
They say "Don't say a word if you don't like it"
I'll never be quiet
When people are dying
They say that I should leave if I don't like it
Maybe I want to
Hell I would love to
Stuck in an echo chamber screaming for rights
It's die or comply
I hate it here
I hate it here
I hate it here
