This is America

Teachers, ain't allowed in here
Children, ain't allowed an ear
Preachers, that's all you ever hear
This is America
Women, ain't allowed to speak
Blacks, ain't allowed to see
Pigs, man they just running free
This is America
People, they acting stupid
Media, just watch em do it
Money, well that's the sole influence
This is America
Mother fuck your life
This is America
Fucking guard your grill
This is America

Welcome to land of the scheme home of the snakes
Enter by way of the price, leave by way of the grave
Police projecting and swerving
Usually inspect 'em and hurt 'em
Preachers perfecting a sermon
Used for protecting perverted
Evil evangelical hypocrites, they full of shit
Flood water pours, they shut their doors
The rich are Kings and queens, their people peasants
You think they just like you and me, planned obsolescence
The only race we really run in is race, money green hold the grace
Those with power set the pace, colored skin, guard your kin,
Paper chase, murder case
Send 'em off to jail but kill 'em in his cell
Not a single solitary fuck, solitary confinement is how they hush you up
And that's the ghetto vs the neighborhood
Office jobs and all the drugs
Politicians all the thugs
Policies and all the guns

Teachers, ain't allowed in here
Children, ain't allowed an ear
Preachers, that's all you ever hear
This is America
Women, ain't allowed to speak
Blacks, ain't allowed to see
Pigs, man they just running free
This is America
People, they acting stupid
Media, just watch em do it
Money, well that's the sole influence
This is America
Mother fuck your life
This is America
Fucking guard your grill
This is America

There's a war going on outside no man is safe from
Theres a war going on outside no man is safe from
No man in the land that you can't take from

Madre orgullosa keep your babies safe
Presidente naranja is known to make a take
ICE will bust in the schools, churches, and all the places
Where you thought you'd get away so please don't make the mistake
Don't matter your status they won't discriminate
21, 21 a victim, set him up with a sting and picked him up
No sucker safer than the next, guard your neck, cop a vest
Guard your chest, write your checks, pay your rent, gather debt
Big business they call it income we call it prison
We see an inmate they see a digit and that's the difference
Military call it a mission, natives will call it a murder
Perpetrator serving time is something you never heard of
Not a single solitary fuck, solitary confinement is how they hush you up
And that's the ghetto vs the neighborhood,
Office jobs and all the drugs
Politicians all the thugs
Policies and all the guns

Teachers, ain't allowed in here
Children, ain't allowed an ear
Preachers, that's all you ever hear
This is America
Women, ain't allowed to speak
Blacks, ain't allowed to see
Pigs, man they just running free
This is America
People, they acting stupid
Media, just watch em do it
Money, well that's the sole influence
This is America
Mother fuck your life
This is America
Fucking guard your grill
This is America

There's a war going on outside no man is safe from
No man in the land that you can't take from
There's a war going on outside no man is safe from
No man in the land that you can't take from
