[Verse 1]
Enough with the self-deprecation
We get it: You’re spineless, we know!
You honor those who are not worthy
It’s shameless and vile, and so…
Where is the anger, where is the rage?
Where are the people, the systems enraged?
Where is the hope for brighter pastures
They promised to send us for life everlasting?
[Pre-Chorus]
And yet the pain inside
Is like ten miles wide
So, consent decree
Embrace your new reality
[Verse 2]
All of our leaders: insane
All of our people: fucked in the brain
Conditioned to follow the mass
Spreading the lies as news travels fast
State your opinion, state it today
Last call for life in this last-chance café
Globalization’s great work is at hand
Enslaving the people, milking the sand
[Pre-Chorus]
We got the end in sight
And it’s black and white
Oh, and it’s plain to see
Embrace the new reality…
[Chorus]
Deploy all troops and tankers
Sent by the international bankers
We can all use a lesson in history
To dispel shock, awe, and the mystery
It’s the fall of the middle class
Thoroughly fucked up and torn a new ass
By the Fed and blind legislation
Drawn up by the mob that ransacked this nation
It stinks to high, holy heaven
From the news at six to more lies at eleven
You better think hard when you tuck the kids in
Tell ’em you love ’em and that life’s worth living
[Refrain]
Yeah… it’s time to wake the fuck up!
Oh!
[Verse 3]
Prying for more information
Ever so slowly exposed
No shortage of sinful behavior
The wolf adorns the sheep’s clothes
Why are the hungry not being fed?
Why are these crazy thoughts in my head?
Why must religion and culture collide
And why is no one but God on our side?
[Pre-Chorus]
Now we’re the enemy
And we’re soon to be
Freedom-free
Embrace the new reality
[Refrain]
Reality, reality, reality
Embrace the new reality…
[Chorus]
I don’t care whether you like me or not
You’ll soon be facedown
In your own shit, blood, piss, and snot
Praise the Lord for the tax cuts he gave you
While global elitists like Bush Co. enslaved you
All pimps just peddling us cheap hoes
Holding down three jobs with cheap booze and no doze
Tabloid press and biblical fixation
Rapture your ass, post-three years of tribulation
Don’t say I never told you so
It’s not like you didn’t have a choice, you know?
The truth hurts in the world we live in
No one’s accountable and all are forgiven
Too many of us along for the free ride
The ark capsized and found us in riptide
Hold true to the words of wisdom
Fight the power, fuck the system!
[Outro]
Fuck the system!
Fuck the system!
Yeah, fuck the system!
Fuck the system!
Fuck the system!
Fuck the system!
