lyrics

We can write the eulogies with any words we please
We have authority
To rewrite history
Don't cross paths with me

It's in one ear and out the next
Pervert-ignore-erase-defeat historical context
And cover up with coded names like "them" "they" and "the rest"

Paint it like your picket fence
Exploiting your majority bias
It's easy to stay ignorant
When it works out for your benefit

I'm aware and I don't care

Keeping us with tradition
Sleeping with our opposition
Believing it's part of our mission
To keep with our repetition

And we're down in denial
That there's a need for trial
And we're up in the fight
To proclaim ourselves right

And the protests count
A large percentage amount
Experiencing their lives
Much differently than ourselves

Don't go too far you might get carried away

Don't get too far it might get washed away
Everything you've built
To make yourself something
When the money meets the words left on your lips you'll see
We savor our skin
More than our fellow human beings
