In Spite

Burn it all down when it doesn't go your way
Thoughts only sound when they come from you
Deep in the ground, your babies thrown away
And in your towns money trumps truth

"Look at me! I'm so fucking rich I must be right
You don't have anything! You don't know anything!
Follow me! Money's made me wise beyond my time
Now get in line! Now get behind!"

Goddamned motherfuckers everywhere I go
Everywhere I go they're stepping on my toes
Always in my face with agendas and demands
With hands up their ass and their faces in the sand
Think you know what's best for me? I think you're full of shit!
Leave the way you came or leave with bloody lips
I'm beaten, burned, abandoned, mocked, ignored, forgotten
In spite I stand!

My hands bleed from the works that I've done
My body screams when I get out of bed
Yet down the street there's no work for some
Still asleep cause they pinch from my bread

"Don't tell me! I grew up poor. I had no dad
You had it made! You weren't a slave!
Pity me! You have more. You should feel bad
Now get in line! What's yours is mine!"

Goddamned motherfuckers everywhere I go
Everywhere I go they're stepping on my toes
Always in my face with agendas and demands
With hands up their ass and their faces in the sand
Think you know what's best for me? I think you're full of shit!
Leave the way you came or leave with bloody lips
I'm beaten, burned, abandoned, mocked, ignored, forgotten
In spite I

No, I won't go! No, no, no!
In spite of your constant bullshit flinging
No, I won't go! No, no, no!
Think you will win? You must be dreaming!
In spite I

Goddamned motherfuckers everywhere I go
Everywhere I go they're stepping on my toes
Always in my face with agendas and demands
With hands up their ass and their faces in the sand
Think you know what's best for me? I think you're full of shit!
Leave the way you came or leave with bloody lips
I'm beaten, burned, abandoned, mocked, ignored, forgotten
In spite I stand!
