One party two party three party four
One for the rich none for the poor
You say my math is off no it’s just fine
The poor have been exploited since the beginning of time
Politicians don’t love you no matter how you vote
Look at the policies they shove down your throat
They divide us by race they divide us by class
Yet some continue to give them a pass
Demagogues all regardless to party affiliation
Which is why this country is in its present situation
You love the incumbent because your party tells you to
But you don’t agree with any of the laws he pushed through 
I’ve always voted this way is the excuse that you use
And that my friend is why you continue to lose

One party, two party, three party, four.
A whole bunch of bullshit and nothing more.
Propaganda to feed mushy mentalities living in altered realities...
A system of the have and the casualties.
If it all came down to it a politician would sell yo ass out...
They've done it time and time again... without a doubt.
Patriot acts where inner cities have become terrorism zones...
Taps and fiber optic microphones all up in yo homes.
All the while all you seeing red, white, and blue...
Living as if you don't have a clue... silly fool.
You want to be free you got to get your own...
Sorry I had to say it but leave the current system alone.
See I can't see you holding my life in your hand after what happened to Nat Turner... what you did to Martin Lee Anderson... The murder of Trayvon.
I know my station... 
I refuse to lose.


Cora
Democrats Republicans Independents too
None of them give a damn about you
But they’ll play their cards so that you can pay their bills
Because at lying and manipulating they have godlike skills
You let the media do your thinking so they have total control
Your mind is the only product that’s being bought and sold
But you don’t believe it you say you are your own man
Yet have no foundation on which to stand
You can’t even tell me why you vote a certain way
Except to quote what the newsman has to say
Wake up little boy you’re losing ground
Wake up little girl do you hear that sound
It’s the sound of your future destruction don’t be confused
Only you can make your life better not the politician you choose


J
A whole mess of a political stew...
Kind of smells like some stinking poo.
Got young soldiers carrying the bag in Iran and Afghanistan as it goes all according to plan...
Wolf in sheep's clothing all off in other folks lands.
C.I.A. and FBI involved in all kinds of intrigue...
Dead dreams of life, love and liberty.
Education is miseducation and the classroom is the killing field...
In Amerikkka its all about the yield.
Amber waves of grain swaying in the acid breeze... purple mountains majesty...
Sounds like a fucked up acid trip to me.
Seems like a whole lot of people need to get off the dope and attend a rehab...
Get clean off of the needle of false hope, stop smoking them slabs.
Kick this pimp in his ass and send him on his way...
Today.
