Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ignorance is danger
Ignorance is good
Close your eyes and play pretend, none of this is true
Cover up corruption
Cover up the truth
Make you think you have control but they're controlling you
[Verse 2]
Shoot to kill, for the thrill
I'm more than a son of a gun
It's down to you, time to choose
[Verse 3]
Medicine is poison
Medicine is good
Take the dose, it's what you need, behave just like you should
War is entertainment
War is good for you
Pin your eyes up to your screens, see what they want you to
[Verse 4]
Shoot to kill, for the thrill
I'm more than a son of a gun
It's down to you, time to choose
[Verse 5]
Leadership contentment
Leadership abuse
Spread the fear, we must adhere, there's no need for proof
Let the public speak out
Let the public choose
It doesn't matter where you turn, either way you lose
[Verse 6]
Shoot to kill, for the thrill
I'm more than a son of a gun
You take the pill that makes you ill
And smile as you swallow it down
Shoot to kill, for the thrill
I'm more than a son of a gun
It's down to you, now you choose
Written by: Phil Campbell, Todd Campbell, Dane Campbell, Tyla Campbell, Neil Starr
