Lyrics

[Verse 1]

i should have listened to her

so hard to keep control

we kept on eating but our

bloated bellies still not full

she gave us all she had but

we went and took some more

can’t seem to shut her legs

mother nature is a whore

[Verse 2]

i got my propaganda i got revisionism

i got my violence in high def ultra-realism

all a part of this great nation

i got my fist i got my plan i got survivalism

[Verse 3]

hypnotic sound of sirens

echoing through the street

the cocking of the rifles

the marching of the feet

you see your world on fire

don’t try to act surprised

we did just what you told us

lost our faith along the way and found ourselves believing your lies

[Verse 4]

i got my propaganda i got revisionism

i got my violence in high def ultra-realism

all a part of this great nation

i got my fist i got my plan i got survivalism

[Verse 5]

all bruised and broken bleeding

she asks to take my hand

i turn just keep on walking

what you’d do the same thing in the circumstance i’m sure you’ll understand

[Verse 6]

i got my propaganda i got revisionism

i got my violence in high def ultra-realism

all a part of this great nation

i got my fist i got my plan i got survivalism
