Election Night

In my point of view

Fuck you to Fox News

Keeping the country separated they made race an issue

See I’m trying to be objective, trying to forgive

Trying to think there’s gonna be a better future for our kids to live

But now I’m like fuck this shit

My politics is a full clip

Country raised on blood will be replenished by it

The revolutions not televised

Television’s telling lies

More of us are going to school but less of us are wise

The system’s is trying to update

The Manchurian Canidate

And Lady Liberty’s real name is Helen Wait

So if want justice go to hell and wait

I ride out for just us not a red or blue state

Cause the red is for one, blue is for another

The independent is white so who represents the brothers

Or my amigos the latinos

We gonna be led by these gringos

We got to shake off the owners like The Traveling All Stars and Bingo

Now Heavy Metal’s in Iraq after they banned Hip Hop

More oppressed people with a voice? You know that had to stop
