Cognitive Dissonance

We got hope and change in America from the LA streets to DC.
Out country's left in dire need.
Be it a sitting duck for the buck shot or an
activist who takes aim at those who rigged this fucking game.
Listen! Depression takes it's toll.
There's no future, no hope in this fuckin' endless abyss.
Our hypocrisy lives,
and it's killing us with a vengeance like never before.
Corruption runs amok in the state of perpetual war.
It's an actual emergency, it's not a drill.
Cognitive dissonance is blinding us
while the bastards are alive and well.
Your freedom was taken too much for
granted and soon you'll find out what it meant.
It's divide and conquer mentality and that's what we have to beat.
So take the lead and follow me.
Consider this the last call.

Time to cut to loose, break free from the chains which bind me.
And yet we keep on searching for reason (or face to place
blame) then carry on with a guilty smile, no cares, no shame.
It's an actual emergency, it's not a drill.
Cognitive dissonance is blinding us
while the bastards are alive and well.
Alive and well.
Alive and well.
Listen!
And it's killing us with a vengeance like never before.
Corruption runs amok in the state of perpetual war.
It's an actual emergency, it's not a drill.
Cognitive dissonance is blinding us
while the bastards are alive and well.
