Letting you Get Away
Who’s got this vision, what is our mission? You’ve got a secret agenda; I’ve got a sneaking suspicion And you speak your bullshit and expect us to listen But it doesn't add up cause we know something's missing And if the truth is revealed, with all the innocent killed Who’s gonna clean up your mess, all the blood you have spilled I hope your greed is fulfilled, I guess you need all this guilt We watched you suck the life from the land that you drilled And oil greases up your palms and it dirties your suit And it soils all our psalms with the essence of you You can foil all our plans and you can hide all the truth But who's loyal to our land while you're stashing our loot And yet we walk away from the lessons we've learned We’re forced to curse the day with blessings we've earned Do you have something to say, and are you even concerned? Can you ever repay all of the money you've burned? And an Iraqi fights that fire with his gun in his hand There’s a lackey and a liar spilling blood on his land And if you subtract his own desire from the chain of command What’s in tact is the supplier who enforces demands And we react to all the liars that are forcing our hand It’s a fact they're growing tired with they're face in the sand But we don't act, we are the buyers and we're losing our land And you're killing us all, so united we fall We can't fight for what's right when divided we stand
