Damn the machine, the system's corrupted
Abusive power is everywhere
Our elected officals pass laws to help
But who's paying them off?
And in the end we, the people, pay
Such a heavy price just for being alive

And if this country was really free
We'd make paper from hemp and let the forest live
But corporate America and billion dollar industries
Have so much power, yet they stand to lose
Too much fucking money - there's nothing we can do, but.!.

Take back all that we've lost at any price that it costs
Our freedom was worth fighting for - resistance now or nevermore

And what about the CIA? What the fuck is their real job anyway?
Starting civil wars in Third World countries
Importing heroin from the far east
Talk about cocaine, neither kept away
From the youths of today and there's nothing we can do, but.!

Take back all that we've lost at any price that it costs
Our freedom was worth fighting for - resistance now or nevermore
