Break These Chains
I was born with fangs instead of teeth
This whole damn system's made for me
My religion says I'm the apex, too
Women are objects for my use
Now I never did buy into all this shit
But that don't mean that I didn't benefit
"Well, what was she wearing?"
You better give it to me
It's the power and the privilege
It's the technicality
And if it's not my fault
Then tell me who's to blame
I can point my fingers
Or I can help to break these chains
Now I hate racists without a doubt
And all the nonsense that comes out their mouths
"All lives matter", "Support the police"
But the people they serve look a lot like me
Now I never did buy into all the shit
But that don't mean that I didn't benefit
Our differences are scary
I'm calling the police
It's the power and the privilege
Manifest destiny
And if it's not my fault
Then tell me who's to blame
I can point my fingers
Or I can help to break these chains
Now I don't wanna be the enemy of you
And taking a stand is the right thing to do
And I don't wanna be the enemy of you
But fence sitting is easier (Fence sitting)
It keeps my conscience clear (Fence sitting)
Fence sitting is easier (Fence sitting)
I'll celebrate the difference
Man, fuck the police
Share power and privilege
Reject authority
And if it's not my fault
Well, the problem still remains
I can my point my fingers
Or I can break these fucking chains
I can break these fucking chains
We can break these fucking chains
This whole damn system's made for me
My religion says I'm the apex, too
Women are objects for my use
Now I never did buy into all this shit
But that don't mean that I didn't benefit
"Well, what was she wearing?"
You better give it to me
It's the power and the privilege
It's the technicality
And if it's not my fault
Then tell me who's to blame
I can point my fingers
Or I can help to break these chains
Now I hate racists without a doubt
And all the nonsense that comes out their mouths
"All lives matter", "Support the police"
But the people they serve look a lot like me
Now I never did buy into all the shit
But that don't mean that I didn't benefit
Our differences are scary
I'm calling the police
It's the power and the privilege
Manifest destiny
And if it's not my fault
Then tell me who's to blame
I can point my fingers
Or I can help to break these chains
Now I don't wanna be the enemy of you
And taking a stand is the right thing to do
And I don't wanna be the enemy of you
But fence sitting is easier (Fence sitting)
It keeps my conscience clear (Fence sitting)
Fence sitting is easier (Fence sitting)
I'll celebrate the difference
Man, fuck the police
Share power and privilege
Reject authority
And if it's not my fault
Well, the problem still remains
I can my point my fingers
Or I can break these fucking chains
I can break these fucking chains
We can break these fucking chains
