I'm sick and tired of begging for seeds
to feed to the birds so i can get some meat
while others rise in splendor, i'm still stuck in squander
and you call us the criminals, but its you the criminal, why you wonder
Its not hate, its jealousy, its envy, and for you its greed
instead of helping others, you take what you want and need
I get straight to the point and dont beat around the bush
We elected obama and now everyone on welfare while he smokin kush
Or deficit tripled like we spending it on others that don't deserve
that form new 9/11 militias with planes in the air refusin to swerve
The rich get richer, while the poor struggle in the streets
The poor that lift each other up, while the rich keep handing defeat
The government in the background snickering, cuz they the ones that feed
this nightmare capitol engine, privacy obstructed, corporate decrees
And yet we steal to keep the lights on, and we are the one in cuffs
When OUR OWN united, kill millions by the minute and yet it isn't enough
Isn't it enough we lost our speech, our rights, our liberty and sanity
Now they treating us all like terrorists in thier own paranoid fantasy
The sad sad news is that our children may never survive the tragedy
When the walls start to crumble and we fighting the system
Where once on top, we find ourselves the new victim
To the same laws we built with our apathy
Left us to suffer in our economic catastrophe
to feed to the birds so i can get some meat
while others rise in splendor, i'm still stuck in squander
and you call us the criminals, but its you the criminal, why you wonder
Its not hate, its jealousy, its envy, and for you its greed
