lyrics

Lemme tell you about a thing I know
Lemme tell you now, let me let you know

I've seen it all through these here eyes
Seen it all unfold, heard all the lies

Empty promises & empty threats
Empty anything on us, to keep us in check

The 1% who run this party,
They do what they want, and that's just for starters

More for them, less for you
'Lesser' people, have more to do!

Life too short, to be unhappy
Time to gate crash, their big party

Help yourself, before you go any further
Be a friend & respect your brother

And when it's all said and done -

I just can't believe all the things people say
Controversy
Am I black or white, am I straight or gay?
Controversy


Do I believe in god, do I believe in me?
Controversy

Controversy x 2

I can't understand human curiosity
Controversy
Was it good for you, was I what you wanted me to be?
Controversy

Do you get high, does your daddy cry?
Controversy

Controversy x 2


Do I believe in god, do I believe in me?
Some people want to die so they can be free
I said life is just a game, we're all just the same,

Controversy x 2

I live in a town where my vote means shit!
I live on a land that’s governed by pigs!

I tried my best ma, to try fit in
Worked real hard, for all our sins

I live in a world ruled by fear
I live in a time where the end is near

Time to help myself & go for the money
And if I get caught, I won't be sorry

I'll take my chance, the time is now
And when it's all done, I'll take my bow

Nothing gona stop me now,
Cos I'm the boss, of this here town

And you'll know me from what I do
Cos if I don't, then I'm the fool

And when it's all said and done -

Do I believe in god, do I believe in me?
Some people want to die so they can be free
I said life is just a game, we're all just the same,
Yeah, oh yeah

Controversy x 4
