To and fro as the saying goes As the afros chase rainbows in search of gold And the money's ****** dry, 'till the rich only supply Ways to the make the poor poorer & keep the crackheads high Then we overdose on sighs that all come at once The teachers so underpaid that we're soon led by the dunce And the market's like the breakers of the sea, it just crashes The 99 sinking in ships while the one percent dashes We find the dream of the US tainted green Or to put it correctly, it has been tainted greed With the day to day in ways that leads to the end With a knife in your back while they pat it like your friend So reliance on defiance is the key so defy All the brainwash and the violence, raise you hands to the sky And live
