Letter to the Government
You make me cry
All the time
All the time
Sometimes you make me want
To commit
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
But I won't
Cos I don't
Wanna die
Wanna die
You make me cry
All the time
All the time
Sometimes you make me want
To commit
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
But I won't
Cos I don't
Wanna die
Wanna die
Dear Government
You make me vomit
You're the cunt who denies me my rights
You ain't nothing but a cheap ho
You'll do anything for a dollar
Except protect your people
I'm torn between destruction
And the desire to escape
Blind eyes
And bodies paralyzed
As brother accepts his fate
Evil moonshine smiles
Guard Babylon's gate
All they spread is darkness
So smoke and fire light our way
Why must I suffer more
Over another man's hate
We'll keep burning and looting
Until hearts and minds change
No more will strange fruit
Black bodies hang
I'll wreck you motherfuckers
In God's name
Scream
Scream
Scream
Was that pretty enough for you
I will never stay in my place
Made in the image of my Creator
That's why you ain't seeing me
I didn't shoot the sheriff
But its a new one in town
I didn't shoot the sheriff
But its a new one in town
All the time
All the time
Sometimes you make me want
To commit
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
But I won't
Cos I don't
Wanna die
Wanna die
You make me cry
All the time
All the time
Sometimes you make me want
To commit
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
Suicide
But I won't
Cos I don't
Wanna die
Wanna die
Dear Government
You make me vomit
You're the cunt who denies me my rights
You ain't nothing but a cheap ho
You'll do anything for a dollar
Except protect your people
I'm torn between destruction
And the desire to escape
Blind eyes
And bodies paralyzed
As brother accepts his fate
Evil moonshine smiles
Guard Babylon's gate
All they spread is darkness
So smoke and fire light our way
Why must I suffer more
Over another man's hate
We'll keep burning and looting
Until hearts and minds change
No more will strange fruit
Black bodies hang
I'll wreck you motherfuckers
In God's name
Scream
Scream
Scream
Was that pretty enough for you
I will never stay in my place
Made in the image of my Creator
That's why you ain't seeing me
I didn't shoot the sheriff
But its a new one in town
I didn't shoot the sheriff
But its a new one in town
