The New Jim Crow

[Intro]

I can't help but shed a tear for you tonight

Because we know nothing can ever make it right

Your days cheated away

Never given a chance to clear your name, no

[Chorus]

Please accept my sincere apologies (x2)

For the heartless, For the useless

For the people who have no soul left to give

For the heartless, For the useless

For the people only looking out for themselves

For themselves

[Verse 1]

Welcome to the new America

Welcome to the new Jim Crow

Welcome to a world gone out of control

I said, picked up, set up, sent down

Case opened closed

I said, picked up, set up, sent down

Case opened closed

[Chorus]

Please accept my sincere apologies (x2)

For the heartless, For the useless

For the people who have no soul left to give

For the heartless, For the useless

For the people only looking out for themselves

For the people only looking out for themselves

[Bridge]

Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed

Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed

Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed

Picked up, set up, sent down, opened, closed

[Chorus]

Please accept my sincere apologies (x2)

For the heartless, For the useless

For the people who have no soul left to give

For the heartless, For the useless

For the people only looking out for themselves

For the people only looking out for themselves

For the people only looking out for themselves
