Promises and Pills (feat. Alfred The MC) |
| In war, combat is so heavily prepared for |
| Returning home is something no one is really there for |
| Half the team is gone, and the half that makes it home |
| They gotta deal with the terrorism, in their skull |
| But there’s a cure the government likes to hit them with |
| Prescribing promises and pills |
| But the side effects is no sleep, no peace |
| Looking for reasons for living as the war moves on |
| America. |
| The System. |
| Reintegrate me, you made me a killer |
| Like you could trade me for everything I’ve lost |
| And look how you made me make me |
| Think about me taking my own life |
| When I remember what went down |
| And you say that I’m the reason for the freedom of this land |
| So I land in their backyard, I’ve got your rifle in my hand, and |
| They defend themselves, you know of course I do the same, so |
| We go kill each other while you go about your day |
| Reintegrate me, you made me a killer |
| Like you could trade me for everything I’ve lost |
| And look how you made me make me |
| Think about me taking my own life |
| When I remember what went down |
| And I don’t sleep at night and I will never be the same |
| And my wife is terrified by these details I can’t explain |
| And my soul is beat to shit and half my friends are dead and gone |
| For all these fucking games you play, we pay the price with our own blood |
| Reintegrate me, you made me a killer |
| Like you could trade me for everything I’ve lost |
| And look how you made me make me |
| Think about me taking my own life |
| When I remember what went down |
| Put a warrior in hell, now he’s finally back |
| With images in his brain of every damn attack |
| Every bomb, every friend that’s never coming home |
| Every innocent life taken, for reasons unknown |
| Then we abandon them, the same ones that did all the killing |
| We no longer deal with them, just their spouses and children |
| And the memories in their head from every damn mission |
| And the war moves on America |
| The System |
| Reintegrate me, you made me a killer |
| Like you could trade me for everything I’ve lost |
| And look how you made me make me |
| Think about me taking my own life |
| When I remember what went down |
