I WRITE FROM THE RIGHT
OR IS IT YOUR LEFT
I AM POLITICALLY INEPT

I WAS RAISED BY THE FLAG
IM NOW ASKED TO BURN

BORN TO KNEEL IN  A PLACE OF WORSHIP

NOW I AM ASKED TO COURTSEY
FOR COURTSHIP

MY BIRTHRIGHT A RUMOR
TEMPERS DO FLARE

BIG BROTHER WATCHERS
PEER EVERYWHERE

ONE NATION UNDER GOD
MORE SO  DURESS

THE SMALLER I TRY TO BECOME
THE BIGGER THE MESS

I LIVE IN THE WILD
IS THAT HOW I SHOULD REMAIN

PAWN KNIGHT OR SAID QUEEN
RIGHT ROOK TAKES THE GAME

THE BLUE TRAVELER SANG WHILE HE PLAYED HIS STEEL BLOW

SHE IS DONE TAKING ALL YOUR INSANITIES
LOOK OUT BELOW

UNDER THE PRESSURE OF
CONSTANT SCRUITINY
TO HELL WITH TAKING ONE
WHEN I PRAY ITS BOTH KNEES

NOW THAT ... THAT IS OUT OF THE WAY
WE HAVE A WAR TO WIN AGAINST OURSELVES TODAY

IN THE WORLD OF I
EGOS
AND JUSTS

GET OUT OF YOUR HOMES
KNOCK OFF THE DUST

THE LONGER YOU SIT
THE MORE THEY SCHEME

UNITED WE STAND
DIVIDED WE FEIN

I WRITE FROM MY RIGHT
OR
IS IT YOUR LEFT

ILL MAKE MY OWN WAY
THATS THE ONLY CHOICE LEFT
