Powertrip
Emergency 911, this call's being recorded
Yeah, I'd like to report a conspiracy
Power
It's all about power on this mother fuckin' powertrip
You slip, they dip their wicks in the candles of success
And express their deepest sympathies to you at your expense
Who loses?
You're lost like the nation's morale
Once again you fail
Your mindset you forget, like a pet
With every waking breath
All your hidden agendas smothering your conscience
To the point of death
They stow away guilt like the gift of forgiveness
'Cause pockets with cross-fingered hands
Reach the deepest
As sure as a gun needs a punk with a bullet
Repetition is set like a trigger waiting for youth
To pull it
And you wonder why this country's corrupt?
And you wonder why this country's corrupt?
And you wonder why this country's corrupt?
And you wonder why
Money

Title and power
Are served on a plate for your kids to devour
Just like a meal
They steal, they deal
It all feels so fucking real
'Cause they're never gonna kneel to authority
You question the laws
When the cause is just you and me
Sittin' glued helpless as they're watching the TV
Force fed hype that they're all believing
They're watching their parents
Living honestly making shit
And they want to grow up
To be just the opposite
Let me tell you why the children rebel
Let me tell you why the children rebel
Let me tell you why your children all will still
Rebel
Ah, yeah
They stow away guilt like a gift of forgiveness
'Cause pockets with cross-fingered hands
Run the deepest
With greed as the seed
You can cultivate hate
They're doing what they're seeing until it's too late
Trunk to tail
Yeah!
UH!
March into the grave like a circus parade
Trunk to tail
March into the grave like a circus parade
Trunk to tail
Oh, march into the grave like a circus parade
Trunk to tail
Trunk to tail!
An elephant never forgets
An elephant never forgets
Yeah, I'd like to report a conspiracy
