We're marching down the streets of The City,
demanding peace and rights for you and me.
We're screaming into the ears of the Idiocracy,
deaf because they're blocked with a hypocrisy.
We're blind if we think we are the forsaken,
they're suffering in other countries.
Just because you're right to hold your gun was taken,
doesn't mean this is the end for you and me.
We're crying out ****** when an animal's slaughtered,
you'll put animals rights before you're daughter.
And when you're daughter can't get a loan for college,
just remember, you chose animals over knowledge.
We're blind if we think we are the forsaken,
they're suffering in other countries.
Just because you're right to hold your gun was taken,
doesn't mean this is the end for you and me.
They are the forgotten!
The forsaken!
We lose sight of the worth of other human life!
We are mistaken!

We're marching down the streets of The City,

We're screaming into the ears of the Idiocracy,

We're blind if we think we are the forsaken,

Just because you're right to hold your gun was taken,

We're crying out ****** when an animal's slaughtered,

And when you're daughter can't get a loan for college,

We're blind if we think we are the forsaken,

Just because you're right to hold your gun was taken,
doesn't mean this is the end for you and me.
They are the forgotten!
The forsaken!
We lose sight of the worth of other human life!
We are mistaken!
