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 |
