Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury |
Life these days can be so complex |
We don’t make the time to stop and reflect |
I know from first hand experience one can go delirious |
seriously it can be like that |
But before I put my foot in my mouth |
cause that’s what I’m about to start talking about |
Please let me confess before all the rest |
that I’m afflicted by this addicted like most in the U.S. |
It’s tough to make a living when you’re an artist |
It’s even tougher when you’re socially conscious |
Careerism, opportunism |
can turn the politics into cartoonism |
Let’s not patronize or criticize |
Let’s open the door and look inside |
Pull the file on this state of denial |
Hypocrisy is the greatest luxury |
Raise the double standard |
The bass, the treble |
don’t make a rebel |
Having your life together does |
AMERICA |
has an image of a young one |
fast living not give an expletive |
no respect for his |
or the lives of those around him |
Suicidal, homicidal or at very least |
extremely unbridled |
How convenient for those |
who would like to destroy him |
The problem has never been our political logic |
but the way we enact it We can imagine a perfect society |
but can’t maintain a decent relationship |
The failure found in the luxury, not in the hardship |
Hipocrisy is the greatest luxury |
Raise the double standard |
