The Big Picture

life ain't nothing but a marketing scheme

and you're just a part of the big machine

breakin' your back and a-wastin' your days

turnin' like a wheel in the factories

and you don't even notice that

you're not even fighting back

and you're not sure what you should be fighting for

cause they've got you so sedated and intoxicated

that you can hardly even think anymore

now they've got us where they want us to be

everybody thinkin' that we're so free

they made us be our worst enemies

the american dream is slavery

but you say atleast we're not as bad

as those countries with their governments that shoot there people down in the streets

but i say they're not as bad as this fucked up government we have

atleast they get a chance to know there enemies

and if you're thinkin' someday maybe things might change

then you better stop listening to what they say!

if you ever plan on understanding what i mean

you can start by turning off your tv

cause a little bit more every day

our freedoms all get stripped away

untill one day they're all gonna be gone

and we won't even notice it

because they take them away an inch by inch

and one day we'll all wonder what went wrong
