Warning: Ugly subject, ugly music, ugly lyrics (strong language)
This song was written in empathy for those on “the other side” whoever they may be, with the realization that someday “they” could be “us”.
| Take it from me I’m not here to tell you what to do What to think What to say What to do with your day I’m sick of this sh*t in my face Don’t f**k with my day And I’ll be cool with you. We’ve got TV – you have TB We rub your noses in our peaceful live, We give freely but we don’t share Yeah, yeah, yeah … war |
What makes you think it’s different Than when there was slaves We’re oceans apart But now there’s planes If I was them I’d take it all And share it with my friends. We kill the planet for our wants and needs We rub your noses in our peaceful lives We give freely but we don’t share |
