Bloodbath

They got the signal they could let it go
The insurrectionists complicit
We thought that they could never sink this low
Well here they are and sinking lower

Someone once said there's strength in letting go
But I'd rather be an imposition
To those who pander to all the unknowns
Protecting nothing like the life and soul of

Unborn children
Making sure not to lead
(God forbid)
Altruistically

We let the men of war control our homes
Intoxicated with the vision
I can't exist knowing all that I know
Perpetuate and feed the system

We're up against a global circumstance
A designation by the government
For time and money to be evident
They pave the way and line the pockets of the

Old white "good guys"
For god and country for
(Their racist beliefs)
For lady liberty
Forced her hands down
The throats of those who face
(Come get us, motherfuckers)
Face down hypocrisy

I think we've got a lot of bleeding to do
I think we've got a lot of bleeding to do
With one hand on the word of your god and the other proclaiming truth
Oh, I think we've got a lot of bleeding to do

I take up space in a Midwest state
That's as red as red can be
Where my son gets to hope
His mom doesn't die just to give him a sibling
So I exercised my ill-named rights granted by democracy
And I took a vote, and what I found wasn't all that shocking

By popular vote we will slice up the fortunate sons

Give me purpose
Give me their destiny
Oh how the tables turn
When we decide the time and place
Their day of reckoning

Give me purpose
Drain them of everything
Let them suffer
Let them die alone but publicly
Broadcast their bloodletting
