How could I have know
What this place was
Once I finally opened
And realized what this place does
What in the world
Kind of world
Are we living in?
Where is this place,
Where does it begin?
When will it end?
When will it end?
The buildings are towering over us
An unhealthy shade
Don’t you need the sun
You stay inside all day
Your television is killing you
Why don’t you go to the places you see,
On those flashing lights,
And experience things
Get off your fucking couch
You’ll never learn about anything
Unless you go and see for yourself
And see this isn’t the pretty world
The media makes it seem
Can’t you see they are brainwashing you
They are not telling you the truth
Open your eyes
Can’t you see who makes the crime
Open your eyes
Can’t you see who creates genocide
Open your eyes
Can’t you see they lock their dumpsters
To keep the poor hungry
And keep you a consumer
