[Intro - Instrumental - 3 bars]

[Verse 1 - Dr. Faustus]

There's no turning back

I left my home burning in flames this morning

Knowing the day-after creates a new day dawning

This is the season of the non-conformist

The arms race where the hare is beaten by the tortoise

More like the bald eagle getting scalped within his fortress

The higher purpose issues

Put this in your headline news:

The hateful man from Iraq

I wrap a long stem-of-thorns around the heartland of America

Achy-breaky, hate me - scarin' ya

Okie-dokie - Oklahoma bombing? Blame me

Suspect unknown, but stereotype and name me

Then you wonder why we extremists

We're dealing with a nation run by demons

Concocting devious government bodies

F-U-C-K all your D.E.A.'s and F.E.M.A.'s

Your regime means to steamroll all opposing themes

Those with melanin in genes always considered away team

Foreign policies transform into broken promises

Can't even fathom exactly what honest is

Dirty, rotten scoundrels dispense the cruel

Promised blacks 40 acres and a mule

All they got was 40 ounces and a stool

The description of existence:

Life's a bitch, and breathing's for fools

Tragedy rules, inhale gas and choke on toxic fumes

Grey skies tremble at the mercy of fossil fuels

Did we all want chaos to run amok?

Livin' a vampire's life - reality bites, and blood sucks

'Til you're zombie-like and just don't give a *gunshot*

But that's all gonna change now...

[Bridge: Instrumental - 6 Bars]

[Verse 2 - Dr. Faustus]

Never exercising their rights, freedom of speech atrophy

Fear of conflict with bully Big Brother breeds apathy

Torture loyal citizens of this wicked system

Leavin' 'em with severed tongue

Let freedom ring, but it never rung

Mute affluent bums force rambles of shabby renditions

Of a national anthem left in shambles

Half-hearted patriotism

Parents now slaves to their children (Brainwashed)

Columbine High School reunion sensationalism

Twenty-one gun, megaton atomic salute

For this government and it's self-destructive attributes

Chickens coming home to roost

This act you call "terrorist"

Provides third-world populace with ego boost

Aggressions eliminate possibilities of truce

Us considered minority, yet you comb the streets for new recruits

Uncle Sam, your nephews wanna show you what you've train them to do

Stressed blue-collars in the name of increased tax revenue

Children work their fingers to the bone in sweatshops

Rest at night in mud-huts. Adolescent have-nots

Nourished in economic cell blocks

Acquire nutrition from a well-developed "In God We Trust" bloodlust

They claw, scratch, and scrape for scraps

Asthma grips and grabs

Hold they breath with iron-grasp, until they lungs collapse

Sick and tired

Choose the lesser of two evils in ballot-box booby-traps

Behemoth industrial complex shall be made simpler

The world ends with a bang while you whimper

[Bridge: Instrumental - 4 Bars]

[Verse 3: Dr. Faustus]

My reasons for doing this are noble

The grievances of my people must be made vocal

This global community cursed with the same destiny of Chernobyl

Under their fearful breath, they sing songs of freedom

Each individual aware: the greater good supersedes 'em

A powerful peace comes over your grand cities

Rebels in the trenches; doing the dirty work with hands-shitty

No sympathy for Mephistopheles

The oppressed won't ever grant pity

Beware, be cautious. Armed forces weakened by heavy losses

Police departments blown to bits by countless grenade tosses

Poisonous chemicals spewing from faucets

Got the upper-class feeling nauseous

Nuclear winter: the coldest equalizer

Racist power-structure destabalizer

What if the wretched victims of imperialism were to rise up?

The ignorant were to wise up?

Underground radiation shelters too quickly use supplies up

New World Order conspirators break their ties up

Revolutionaries organize: cross their T's and dot their I's up

The greatest opposition to liberty were sized up

Flip the Earth like a coin, hope for the right-side up

Self-defeated suicide, down. War criminal homicide, up

Global warming melt polar caps and raise the tide up

What would you do?

Time's up
