Heat and hearth give birth to the pain of the people Burning down whatever was created Blowing away the ash left behind from memories The wind whispering tyranny into the ears of the leaders Portraying violence among the people we once called friends The understandings of a mind get burned Causing strain in society There is no more room for hope The noose is around our necks We are getting whipped into place One foot out of line and we’re gone The fear coursing through our veins should be replace with anger Anger towards those who wrong us The ones who decide what we can and can’t do The ones who say they’re doing it in the name of God Well, I hate to break it to you There is no God, There is no one coming for us except ourselves

The Government Left No Hope
Heat and hearth give birth to the pain of the people Burning down whatever was created Blowing away the ash left behind from memories The wind whispering tyranny into the ears of the leaders Portraying violence among the people we once called friends The understandings of a mind get burned Causing strain in society There is no more room for hope The noose is around our necks We are getting whipped into place One foot out of line and we’re gone The fear coursing through our veins should be replace with anger Anger towards those who wrong us The ones who decide what we can and can’t do The ones who say they’re doing it in the name of God Well, I hate to break it to you There is no God, There is no one coming for us except ourselves
