Purple mountains watch them bleed under the disguise of democracy
Twin sunsets of false hope
This party that party
Celebrate with the champagne of lead water and pipelines and lies
Strap the blinders on tighter
Don't let the common man see the filth and pollution you spread behind the curtains of what you tell them is the Wizard of Oz
Where the broken dreams of the poor continuously feed the bottomless hunger of the gluttonous teeth of the rich
Vote for this ******* or that *****
It doesn't really matter just keep the illusion of freedom and choice alive
America was made by the blood and bones of cruelty
Built by dark hands bound in chains and ebony backs lashed by whips
We've done nothing less evil since the genocide and eviction of the people that lived here before we made this land great
And evil see evil do is what we do best so we just keep singing along about star spangled banners and purple mountains majesty
While ignoring the fact were holding the shovel thats digging our graves
