System Fucked

Religious lied, you're pledgified the first day you're in school
The system grinds your fertile mind into an Army tool
They create injustice, lies & inequality
"Be all that you can be"

The pitch is that you'll see the world & pick up a degree
Avoid the threat of prison time, well, hypothetically
They stick you in the jungle, in the desert of the world
& then their flag is unfurled

Red white & blue'd, they lied to you & devastate your home
They'll you too, line, sinker you into an Army drone
A pack of lies for fresh supplies!

If you die so far away, a folded flag for kin
They ship you back a secret that you fought but didn't win
Either way, you're changed today, you played pawn for what?
Profit-Gluttons don't give a Fuck!

Abandoned when you return from the war they had you fight
Dismissive, but assuring you, that what you did was "Right"
P.T.S.D., Nightmares, on a brutal, callous whim
Greet your prosthetic limb!

Youth in action, murder sanctioned, medals for your kills
Life vs. meaning, Sick you're weaning off prescription pills
You run away from this decay!

It's another fleece again / Another dead american
Another spoil of war to spend / Another caustic feast begins
Another lie to spin the lost in another foreign holocaust
Applause & flags wave all around / Another troop dies on the ground!

The youth were plucked & System fucked!
The rich hold checks all blank!
Red, white & blued, contracts renewed
They're crying to the bank!
They cashed their chips & you were it!
