Push

Did we miss the goal?
Was it all a dream?
Did we count the cost
Or are we countin' CREAM?
Did we forget the part about sacrifice?

'Cause we treat it like a crime
Then we flee the scene...

Now, a lack of affluence
Becomes a nuisance
And we get p*ss*d
When our personal peace
Suffers intrusions-

Step one:
Get a gun
Enough with tryin' to rise
And overcome
Overwhelm 'em in a hail of bullets;
You better do or you get done

By any means necessary
Humanity is secondary
It's beastly on these streets
So my aim has gotta be legendary

A King without a crown -
You'll get laid down
Like the rest of 'em
When the 2nd amendment
Trumps forgiveness
You'll just die young
Like the best of 'em

Love versus a .45;
Bloody Sunday
When these worlds collide
It's a long way from here to kingdom come
Meanwhile, we're either killing comfort
Or taking lives

"Free at last..." -
 I'll pass
Just a slave to the system
That got hooked on new math:

One in the hand
Is worth two in the bush
But there's plenty more
Out on the wire...

And all I need is a push.
