For What

You're a pig with money stuffed in your mouth
I wish you could admit what the law is really all about
You use your power in evil ways
"Serve and protect"
Do you mean what you say?
No!

I don't want politics
I just want peace
I'm sick of starving here
Down at your feet
Why do I hold you up?
Why do I please?
Take back the power
By any means

People who die in their hands don't have to live in silence
We carry their voices through our own
And through condemning violence
Destroy the systems
They're meant to work against us forever
Time to break the chains
And throw cash in with your thoughts and prayers

I don't want politics
I just want peace
I'm sick of starving here
Down at your feet
Why do I hold you up?
Why do I please?
Take back the power
By any means

The systems will not dismantle overnight
It starts in your head
And it should be followed by action
By fucking action!
The government should be doing more
And they have all the resources they need
To take care of us but they choose not to
For what?
Ugh!
For what?
For money? For greed?
They've been doing this for centuries
And the resistance has always been there
It grows, it dies
And it comes back again!
