Our Time Honored Tradition Of Cannibalism |
From black panthers and the CIA |
Into a sharp wit with a stupid slag |
we’ve gone and dug our own hole cause everybody knows |
we eat our own |
so busy fighting each other while the real bastards fun for cover |
we shoot our own leaders down |
before those in power get the chance |
so they sit back and laugh while we destroy ourselves |
wakeup and shut up we’ve become our worst enemy |
turning inward to our own detriment |
forgetting the message we were to end |
we’ve lost count up victims roll call |
they’re all our own look back at what we’ve done |
drove out the wrong side kicked sand in our own eyes |
with every heroes welcome is another group on the side |
ready to fire if they step out of line |
just one mistake |
and jealous hands claw away hope for a better way |
you bought it forget it goodbye |
so saints be on your does and heroes be not proud |
because as soon as the people rise someone will tear you down |
wake up and shut up we’ve become our worst enemy |
