to my man JP, God bless your life
to my San Marcos people, God bless your life

living on the edge of the knife is a difficult task
an insane thing to ask
when it feels like i'm sowing but i'm not reaping
feels like i'm dreaming but i'm not sleeping
lines got crossed and our civil liberties got tossed to the side like trash
endless amounts of cash to pour into conflict that we created
consciously aided and abetted
put a face on the whole thing
so that when he was beheaded you would easily forget it
i remember when i read 1984
it seemed like a forecast of what was in store for the simple man
in the form of information oversaturation all across the nation
check out the ill situations
as they're paraded across the news stations

seems likely that i might be
a combination of Spike Lee and David Icke
do the right thing with both sides of the brain
arrange new ways to calculate loose change
add it up to make sense of present tense in relation to the past
shine in the shadows cast over the unknown
and i'll never have to learn how to operate with my mind blown
some of us are show the way
given chances to own the day
escape from the evil eye and its sway
be that as it may
all are obligated to pay like they weigh
time for me to stray from the pack
fully intact
locked, loaded and ready for attack
leader of the nonchalant pack
hand on the curtain and i'm hurting to pull it back

people claim to be complex
but are not military industrial
which sucks for you
because all around us you find clues and evidence
Drake Equation
the Schuman Resonance
Patriot Act
introduction of crack and heroin to quell revolution
the Final Solution
COINTELPRO
SDS, hell no, we won't go
direct action
war propaganda
Iraq
Afghanistan
Rwanda
9-11-01
the Fifth of November
the Days of Rage
and Black September
triangular trade was how money was made
but now bullets are sprayed
and everybody gets paid on Capitol Hill
things are unreal
and the time hasn't even come yet to reveal the real beneficiary
these times are scary when you connect the dots
and point light in spots where a shadow was cast
you and the men who were hiding butt heads
and worlds start colliding
nowadays dissenters turn up missing
instead of being found dead or locking in prison
same song with a brand new sound
and it's broadcast live from The Weather Underground
