you walk past an activist, who is talking on the
street
about political prisoners, locked up in your own
home
state and you think just for a minute, you think
just
a second then you say, "that can't be true! cause
i live
in the land of the freedom... where no one gets
the screw!"
you turn your face, you turn your back, you say,
"that can't be true!"
you stay safe locked in your prefab world, cause
you're sure
it won't happen to you you're sure it won't
happens to you!
you heard it every day, since the first day of
your life but
you never stopped to think, what you heard was
full of lies
you can't question for a minute, can't question
for a second
cause you're nothing but a tool whose blueprints
are tailored
and fashioned, each night by the evening news you
could stand
on the street, talk 'til you're blue in the face
and they would not
make you stop, cause you have no power base but
if Dan Rather
got on the Evening News, and said, "it's time for
revolution!"
the F.B.I. would fuck him up so bad, he'd wish he
wasn't living!
they call it America, "land of the free, home of
the brave"
more to the truth it's a murderer, it's the land
of the Enslaved!
